DC police increase presence around Jackson-Reed High after Friday night melee at Tenleytown Wawa
A D.C. Public Schools spokeswoman said the extra presence is a precaution, and that Metro Transit Police are also expected to be more visible near the Tenleytown stop Monday.
School leaders are still working to determine whether any students were involved in the incident.
On Friday around 8:15 p.m., DC police said they responded to the Wawa store to find a “disorderly affray” occurring inside and in front of the store.
Affray, according to police academy materials, is “fighting by mutual consent of two or more people in some public place to the disturbance of others.”
There were no reported injuries, police said.
Jackson-Reed played Dunbar in a football game Friday night.
In a tweet, the DC police union said the brawl involved 300 juveniles.
WTOP has contacted police for the number of juveniles involved in the fight.
