CAMDEN: Sixty state troopers helped city police patrol Camden High School and the surrounding neighborhood Tuesday as students returned for a quiet, orderly half-day of school following Monday's lunchtime brawl, officials said.

Students will return to a normal schedule today, but state, city and district security officers will maintain a heavy presence indefinitely because the problems that caused the fight have not yet been rooted out, police said. Two arrests were made Tuesday, bringing the total to 19. Most were charged with inciting a riot and simple assault.

CAMDEN: Police arrested 17 students in Camden High School, and four people were taken to the hospital after a fight broke out Monday morning, authorities said.

Two students, a teacher and a security guard were taken to Cooper University Hospital, according to police. A spokesman for the Board of Education said all of those taken to the hospital were sprayed with Mace.

"We believe this was a dispute over the weekend that was brought to school," police spokeswoman Teresa Sicard Archambeault said.
