Locke High School in South Los Angeles locked down after huge brawl Luis Sinco / Los Angeles Times A school official talks to concerned parents gathered today at Locke High School in South Los Angeles, site of an afternoon melee among students. Four people are arrested after a lunchtime melee involving as many as 600 students. By Howard Blume and Mitchell Landsberg, Los Angeles Times Staff Writers May 10, 2008 A fight between rival groups of black and Latino students at Locke High School quickly escalated into a campus-wide melee Friday, with as many as 600 students brawling until police restored calm with billy clubs. The troubled campus in South Los Angeles was locked down after the fight broke out at 12:55 p.m., as students returned from lunch to their fifth-period classes. Overwhelmed school officials called Los Angeles police for help, but students and faculty said it took about half an hour before dozens of officers, many in riot gear, restored order.

Locke High School is located in the heart of South Central Los Angeles; when you mention South Central to an Angelino he immediately understands what the “problem” is. “South Central” is also such a politically loaded, “racist” designation that it was officially banished as a location couple of years ago. It can not be printed in a newspaper, and the cops absolutely can not use it in radio traffic. I kid you not!
