Vigilantes patrol town after claims of mass brawl and rape threats at school

VIGILANTES patrolled the streets of a British town after claims of a mass brawl at a school sent racial tensions to fever pitch.

 

As many as 100 people in Crewe, Cheshire, were wandering the streets in large groups after reports of rape threats being made against school children.
Police have put extra patrols in the town in a bid to calm tensions sparked by a fight at school.
Parents have claimed their children had their hair pulled and were threatened with rape.

Many have taken to social media to claim that a large group of Eastern European students lashed out and made the threats at the Sir William Stanier Community School.
School officials and police have flatly denied the accounts, saying that only six students were involved in the fight.
Speaking to Express.co.uk, one parent said there were “a few” separate fights in the school’s playground.

The parent went onto claim her child was knocked to the ground and injured her head.
It is understood many parents kept their children home from school last week after the rumours of the fight started to circulate around the school community.
According to the school, six students were excluded while police confirmed one pupil - a 14-year-old girl - was arrested on suspicion of assault.
Rumours of the brawl have spiralled out of control and stoked tensions in the town, which has a large Eastern European population.
