A 15-year-old stu­dent of a sec­ondary school in Ce­dros was stabbed dur­ing an al­ter­ca­tion in­volv­ing stu­dents yes­ter­day.

Ac­cord­ing to po­lice re­ports, the in­ci­dent oc­curred around 9.30 a.m. when a po­lice of­fi­cer as­signed to the school ob­served groups of stu­dents run­ning to­wards a chain-link fence at the front of the com­pound.

The of­fi­cer, who was at­tached to the Po­lice Com­mu­ni­ty Ori­ent­ed Polic­ing Unit, then no­ticed a com­mo­tion out­side the school in­volv­ing stu­dents who had ex­it­ed a PTSC bus near the pavil­ion. The of­fi­cer shout­ed at them to stop.
