WESTFIELD (WWLP) – Two Westfield High School students allegedly assaulted school principal Jonathan Carter.
The school’s resource officer and other members of the administration came to help.
The Superintendent of the Westfield Public Schools says the two high school students will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Dr. Suzanne Scallion said two girls, ages 16 and 17, tried to attack another student. That’s when Carter blocked a doorway that led to their target.
The two girls allegedly turned their attack on Carter, punching, kicking and biting him. The school’s resource officer arrested the girls and Scallion said they’ve been suspended and could be expelled.
