Police took two Hillside girls into custody after a fight broke out Monday afternoon at the Walter O. Krumbiegel Middle School.
According to a preliminary statement released by authorities, officers responded to 145 Hillside Avenue Tuesday at around 3:30 p.m. for several reports of a fight at that location.
