1 arrested, 1 wanted after fight outside Sussex Central High School graduation Tuesday

A 29-year-old man from Millsboro has been arrested in connection with a large fight that broke out after Sussex Central High School's graduation on Tuesday night, Delaware State Police said.

There is currently a warrant out for the arrest of a 16-year-old girl who police say was also involved in the fight.

Police said the girl started kicking, punching and yelling at a 48-year-old Millsboro woman at 8:40 p.m. outside the main gate to the graduation ceremony after it ended. The 29-year-old man was also seen punching people, including the 16-year-old, according to police.

The girl then walked away across the softball field, state police said, where she began fighting again. Police did not say who she was fighting with when they broke up the altercation. The girl and her father refused to cooperate with police and left, and no one else stayed behind to report their injuries or tell officers what happened.

State police said they were later able to identify the 48-year-old woman who was injured in the fight, and she and her 15-year-old daughter reported their injuries to police the following day. The woman had a scratch on her nose, according to police, and the 15-year-old had a black eye and swollen nose.

They were both injured by the same 16-year-old girl, according to police, and there is a warrant out for her arrest on charges of disorderly conduct and two counts of third-degree assault − all misdemeanors.

Neither of the girls were students at Sussex Central High School, state police said.
