Two others were more lightly injured in the struggle that one police source said had broken out around 8:00 am as the teenagers involved were on their way to secondary school.

It was not immediately clear what triggered the fight, in which weapons including the axe, a knife, a samurai sword and baseball bats were used.

Damn. I thought some US schools were rough.

That would've been a gunfight. Here in Europe we practice melee only.

Just fyi, the hand being cut off is fake news, and none of the victims have their life in danger

Well, ya gotta hand it to 'em, they know how to write a headline

Sounds interesting. I might see it at the theater when it releases.

Per the articles context I'd say it was the are guy who lopped off sword guys hand. Not what I was going to guess.
