REPORT ON A FIGHT AT THE SCHOOL CANTEEN

A fight broke out at the school canteen during recess. As a witness to the whole incident, I would like to submit a report on this matter.

1. The fight broke out at the school canteen on 12 March 2009 during recess at about 10.45 a.m. that day. The fight involved two students from our school where one of them ended up being severely injured after he was assaulted by the other.

2. As usual during recess, there was always a long queue for students buying nasi lemak in the canteen. Many of the students were pushing and shoving each other so that they could get to the front line quicker. A student in the front line was waiting for his change for RM50.00. The whole incident started when a big sized boy in the queue became very impatient and soon started giving the student nasty remarks. Not only that, he also rudely told the student to not show off by waiting for a big change.

3. Soon after that, the situation got worse. The student felt annoyed and shouted back at the boy. Two prefects who were on duty tried their best to calm down the two of them as well as the situation that got out of control. However, both of them refused to listen to the orders of the two prefects. The boy proceeded to punch the student in the face out of anger and caused his nose to bleed. A moment later, the other prefects and a canteen operator were called to help out at the scene where the fight took place. They caught hold of the two students and pulled them away from each other to prevent the situation from becoming even worse. The two students ended up with many bruises and were taken to the sickbay to be nursed. As soon as the commotion was over and everything was back to normal, the rest of the students continued buying food.


I sincerely hope that my report will greatly help the school authority in their further investigation to settle this matter.
