MIAMI (CNN) — Police were called to Miami Edison Senior High School after a student protest became unruly Friday, officials said. Quintin Taylor, a spokesman for the Miami-Dade School Board, said “a couple of hundred” students were involved in the protest, which began during lunch hour in an open patio next to the cafeteria. Minor injuries were reported among police and students, and video from the scene showed several students being led away as if under arrest. Students told television station WSVN they were angry that the principal put a student in a “choke hold” Thursday. |
