4/11/13 - A pretrial hearing has been scheduled for the female Hartland High School student charged with aggravated assault after an attack on another student that was filmed and put on the Internet. The incident 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. Police say the two girls had been arguing about a personal issue in the assailantâs life during class, and the argument escalated into violence when they got into the hallway. A teacher broke up the fight, but not before the victim suffered a broken nose. The alleged attacker is being charged with aggravated assault, with court records alleging she was armed with a weapon but did not intend to cause serious injury. The misdemeanor charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in jail and/or a $1,000 fine. The girl will be in Livingston County Juvenile Court on April 29th for a pretrial hearing. She has been released to the custody of her mother. (TD)
