The police say that a 15-year-old male student was assaulted at Dublin High School on Friday, August 23, 2024, around 3:30 p.m. Dublin Police Services responded to the scene after receiving reports of a fight on campus.

According to police, the incident began when the victim was confronted by a Dublin High School parent, leading him to retreat into the boys' locker room.
