Woodland police respond to three fights at Pioneer High School, investigate possible gang connection

Fight at Pioneer High School. Fight at Pioneer High School At around 9:30 am this morning, officers were made aware of several fights occurring at Pioneer High School. Woodland PD was able to respond immediately since our School Resource Officer was on campus. Working together, Woodland PD officers, school employees, and probation were quickly able to stop the fights and ensure students and staff were safe. It was discovered that three fights had occurred, two of which began for a similar reason. Officers and school staff released eight students to parents escorting them off-campus. The two fights that were connected are believed to be gang-related and Woodland Gang Task Force and Probation are continuing to investigate. No weapons were involved in the fights or recovered at the school. No students were seriously injured. The Woodland Police Department will continue to have School Resource Officers and additional officers both on campus and in the area of the high school throughout the day to ensure students and staff continue to be safe.
