Deputies confirmed that a shot was fired into the ground, but nobody was hurt and no arrests have been made.
They also say the fight does not seem to be gang related.
There is no outstanding threat to the public.

I want to reassure everyone in our North Valleys High School family that we are safe. I know it’s difficult to hear news like this about our school, but it’s important to remember that we hold trainings and drills throughout the year, and those procedures worked smoothly today. Our staff members and students quickly implemented emergency protocols to protect themselves and their peers, and I appreciate the fact that they stayed calm during this incident.  Â
