Stabbing at local high school

And it's not MY high school. Funny, my high school supposedly has a bad reputation for being "ghetto" but stuff like that doesn't happen here.

Des Moines Teen Stabbed Outside High School
DES MOINES, Iowa -- A Des Moines teenager is recovering after being stabbed outside a local high school Wednesday.

Chris Bonnett, 17, was stabbed in the arm in the Roosevelt High School parking lot around 1 p.m, according to a statement from the Des Moines Police Department. He was taken to a local hospital.

Hieu Tran, 18, a student at Roosevelt, was arrested and charged with willful injury in connection with the assault, according to the statement.

Tran will be transported to the Polk County Jail, police said.

Officials are investigating the incident to determine if anyone else was involved.

Yep, this is at the high school where my kids would go, if we stayed in our current house. Actually, Roosevelt has a pretty decent reputation, and I know there are bad actors in every bunch, so I'm not going to knock Roosevelt for this incident. I'd just like for people to see North in a better light, yanno?
