Brawl erupts at high school football game

Police used pepper spray to control a brawl that broke out at a high school football game in St. Paul.

Authorities say the fight Thursday night happened at Central High School during a homecoming game against city rival Como High School. About 50 to 60 students were involved in the fight inside the stadium that eventually spilled outside.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press says officers got help from Metro Transit police in dispersing the crowd.
