WACO, Texas — Indian Spring and Carver Middle School was placed on a secure lockout Friday after a brief fight.

A spokesperson for Waco ISD said the fight happened before 11 a.m. on the Indian Spring Middle School campus.

The Waco ISD Police Department recommended the campus go into secure lockout meaning doors were locked to visitors but students were allowed to be picked up.

The principal of Indian Spring and Carver Middle School said the situation was completely contained and the individuals involved have been identified and would be dealt with from a disciplinary standpoint.

Students from Carver Middle School had been displaced to Indian Spring Middle School after a fire destroyed the Carver Middle School campus in July.
