According to the acting principal of Addelita Cancryn Junior High School, Yvonne Pilgrim, the student injured during a fight earlier this week was not a Cancryn student. Pilgrm said Thursday that the minor boy was a Charlotte Amalie High School student and the fight did not occur on the Cancryn campus but in the parking lot of a nearby convenience store and gas station.
Pilgrim said Thursday she does not know whether any of her students were involved because the injured student will not talk to anyone about the incident. She said it is her understanding that he is recovering satisfactorily from lacerations suffered from blows by a baseball bat.
Without the injured student's cooperation, police have been unable to complete their investigation of the incident.
Meanwhile, the CAHS student who was stabbed near the high school Tuesday afternoon is reported to be recovering from wounds that were not life-threatening. Police said Thursday a suspect has been identified, and that an arrest is imminent. The suspect is believed to be a minor.
