3/21/13 - Police have finished their investigation into an incident last week when one Hartland High School student attacked another from behind. The incident, which was caught on video and posted online, occurred on March 12th in a hallway at Hartland High. The video of the incident shows one female student arguing with another before grabbing her from behind, pulling her to the ground, and attacking her. Sheriff Bob Bezotte says the two girls had been arguing about a personal issue in the assailantâs life in the classroom before the fight, and the argument escalated into violence when they got into the hallway. Bezotte says the family did not originally plan to press charges, but has changed its position on that and now wants to pursue prosecution. The police have completed their investigation and submitted a report to the prosecutorâs office, which will make the decision whether to bring charges against the accused assailant. It will now be up to the prosecutorâs office to bring charges against the student. Bezotte says the assailant would be tried in juvenile court. (TD)
