Seven Arrested In School Cafeteria Food Fight (7th Graders)
<snip>

WATERBURY, Conn. -- A food fight that started with fruit cup turned into a mealtime melee, serving up a full plate of arrests and injuries.

Seven seventh-graders were arrested after a spat in a middle school cafeteria left two teachers and a detective with injuries Wednesday.

The incident began at West Side Middle School after a girl dumped a fruit cup over a boy's head, police said. The two started fighting, then other students joined in, some jumping on tables and throwing food, police said.

"What was described as a riot situation developed in the cafeteria," Sgt. Christopher Corbett said.

1. I have a neice that lives with me..
she is in the 7th grade. She was telling me that their school was going to have a food fight on the last day of school and she didn't know if she would be kicked out. I told her there was no way I would allow her to particiapte. She tried to say that just being there if it happened would get her suspended. I don't know if the fight occured or not because I decided to keep her home on the last day.

3. Waterbury is the same town that wouldn't hire a guy as a cop because
he did too well on the aptitude test.

4. It's also the same town that spawned both
John Roland (the corrupt, sleezoid Republican governor)
and
ex-mayor Philip Giordano (currently in federal prison for sex acts with 9 and 11 year old girls) also .... a Republican

I was known as a real terror.
