WATCH: Two students injured in gang fight at Tarrant High

Two students of Tarrant High School were reportedly rushed to hospital Thursday afternoon, after they were injured during a fight at the institution.

One student was stabbed in the chest and the other received cuts over his eyes during what is being described as a gang fight.

Police were reportedly called to the institution and had to fire several shots to quell the melee.

The school was prematurely dismissed as a result of the incident.

Some parents turned up to the school after their children called stating that they were afraid. However, when they got to the school, the gates to the institution were locked.

“[My son] call me and tell me fi come up here because youth up here get stab up and him fraid.
