VIDEO: Stivers fight sends medics, police to Dayton school

DAYTON — A fight at Stivers School for the Arts led to medics and police responding to the school this morning, according to dispatch records.

The fight was captured on cellphone video.

“One of our students has a medical emergency,” a staff member told 9-1-1 dispatchers. “This particular student was beat up.”

A school employee identified the injured student in the 9-1-1 call as a 14-year-old girl. The girl was treated and released from Dayton Children’s Hospital, hospital officials said.

In the video, you see several students beating another student as they are on the ground. The video continues and shows several others getting involved in the fight, which was reported around 10:30 a.m.

After the fight, a group of students carry the student up the stairs at the school.

District officials declined to release any specifics about the fight, but said they are investigating.

“DPS takes matters of student and staff safety seriously,” said Dayton Public Schools Superintendent Elizabeth Lolli.

We’re working to learn from police whether anyone could face charges in the investigation.
