Canton police arrested eight teenagers Tuesday after a large fight broke out in the parking lot of Canton McKinley High School.

After officers arrived at the brawl, those involved ran away into the neighborhood surrounding the school. A large group of them were later found near Abbott Place Northwest and Broadway Ave. Northwest, where they were taken into custody for disorderly conduct.

Only one of the suspects, 18-year-old Nyron Isiah Driggs, is an adult. Driggs was booked in the Stark County Jail, while the other seven were taken to the Multi County Juvenile Attention Center.

As a result of the incident, Canton police officers will be stationed at all city schools throughout the rest of the week.
