A basketball game at Antelope High School was stopped on Tuesday night after a fight broke out in the crowd. Around 15 to 20 people, including students and spectators, were involved in the incident, which occurred around 8:20 p.m. The game between Antelope High and Center High School was called off during the third quarter, as reported by the ABC10.
The Sacramento County Sheriff's Office confirmed that the incident at the basketball game involved only spectators, not the players. Sgt. Amar Gandhi stated, "It didn't appear to involve any of the players." No arrests were made, and there were no reports of injuries or weapons at the scene, according to ABC10.
Uncertainty remains over the cause of an altercation at Antelope High School, and both school officials and law enforcement are working to understand what led to the incident. "Antelope High School staff is working closely with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office to understand the events leading up to the altercation," school officials said in a statement. Additional staff will be on-site on Wednesday to "further assess the situation." Sheriff's deputies have maintained a presence at the school to help ensure order in the aftermath, in a statement obtained by CBS News Sacramento.
