Teachers and students of Harmony Secondary School, Wismar, Linden, were attacked by a gang on Monday, and one teacher and a student were injured. The gang members were armed with scissors, a knife and a piece of wood during the attack.

The gang was summoned by one of its members who is a student at the secondary school. The student was previously involved in an incident with a fellow student two weeks ago. A teacher was notified and began investigating the matter. In doing so she asked for him to return with his parents but instead he returned with the gang.

On Tuesday, teachers, parents, and students protested against the gang violence in schools.
