Keizer Police Incident #19-3442
On September 19, 2019 at about 2:20 p.m., a Keizer Police School Resource Officer (SRO) was notified about a fight that was occurring near the gymnasium, inside the school. The officer responded and confirmed an active fight was occurring between two female students. Staff members broke up the fight, but hundreds of students had gathered to watch. Upon arriving at the fight, the SRO identified two male students he believed were involved in the incident. Upon trying to detain them for further questioning, the SRO became involved in a physical struggle with the males.
During the course of the SRO attempting to take the two males into custody, a staff member at the school requested immediate help for the SRO and several officers responded to the radio call. No injuries occurred. Both males were arrested and transported to the Marion County Juvenile Department, each charged with disorderly conduct and interfering with a peace officer.
