Police warned before fight involving parent near Aurora high school


Police were warned that a fight was going to happen but were unable to stop a brawl involving a parent that erupted near an Aurora high school on Friday afternoon.

York regional police said Tuesday that while officers attended Cardinal Carter Catholic High School, they did not see any evidence of a fight.

The fight took place at Briar Nine Park near Cardinal Carter around 3 p.m. on Friday. It was captured on video. The videos were first shown in a CityNews exclusive on Monday.

Four students from that video have now been identified, York Catholic District School Board (YCDSB) spokesperson Sonia Gallo said Tuesday. Those four students have been asked to stay home, but are not suspended, after the fight.

Police said Tuesday that they believe a student from Cardinal Carter and a student from St. Theresa Lisieux Catholic High School were involved in the fight.

Gallo said that the parent involved in the fight is the father of a Cardinal Carter student, and his son is one of the four who have been asked to stay home. To her knowledge, the child is not a victim of bullying.  (more...)
