Peterborough police have issued more details on a fight at Crestwood Secondary School in Cavan-Monaghan Township on Friday that led to the arrests of two people.
As CHEX News first reported Friday, two people were arrested after a melee around the lunch hour in the lobby area.
On Monday, police said the pair – ages 19 and 22 – were not students but were visiting the school looking for a 16-year-old Crestwood student.
“During the altercation the 19-year-old accused was involved in a consensual fight with a 16-year-old male,” police said.
Police said during the altercation, the 19-year-old brandished pepper spray and sprayed the student in the face and then brandished the canister at two school staff members.
A 22-year-old man then assaulted a staff member who attempted to intervene, police said.
Students told CHEX News the teacher suffered injuries. Police said all injuries were minor in nature.
As a result of the investigation, two people were arrested.

Clayton Richard Spry, 22, of Wilfred Drive, was arrested and charged with assault. He was also charged under the Trespass to Property Act with fail to leave premises when directed.
They were released from custody and are scheduled to appear in court on May 3.
