TEEN tempers can flare fast and videos can sometimes make things look worse than they seem.
After a clip of a brawl between schoolgirls went viral, those in frame were assumed to be involved.
So did a fight really break out in a school in Bedong as claimed in the video?
Verdict:
TRUE
Police are investigating the fight involving female students in front of a secondary school in Bedong after videos of the incident went viral.
Kuala Muda OCPD Asst Comm Hanyan Ramlan said police identified between six and 10 female students seen in the video.
However, he said investigations revealed that only two or three students were involved in the fight.
He said others seen in the video were trying to defuse the situation, which made it appear as though a larger group was involved.
"The actions of several students attempting to break up the fight created the impression that everyone at the scene was involved in the fight," said ACP Hanyan.
He said police are reviewing several other videos to identify others present at the scene and those identified will be called to the police station to record their statements.
Hanyan said no arrests have been made so far.
He added that no weapons were used and no serious injuries were reported.
"The cause of the fight is believed to be a misunderstanding on social media among several students," he said.
