Two Lone Star High School students were taken into custody by the Frisco Police Department (FSD) following a report law enforcement received of an assault at the school on Wednesday.

The suspects, both students at the school, are accused of injuring a disabled individual, according to police statement.

The two youths were arrested without incident on September 14 and charged with Injury to a Disabled Individual, a third-degree felony offense punishable by up to 10 years in jail.

“The Frisco Police Department has made it clear that school safety is a priority,” said Chief David Shilson.

“Criminal behavior will not be tolerated, and all persons involved will be held accountable,” the chief warned. “Our department continues to work closely with Frisco ISD to maintain campus safety and protect all students and faculty.”

The Dallas Express reached out to the Frisco Independent School District (ISD) but had not heard back at the time of press.

The juveniles’ names were not released. The investigation is still active, according to the FPD.

The assault inside Lone Star follows accusations of students selling marijuana edibles at Garland High School.

Anyone with information about the assault on the disabled individual is asked to call Frisco Police at (972) 292-6010. Anonymous tips can also be submitted by texting information to FRISCOPD at 847411 (tip411) or downloading the Frisco PD app, which is available for both Android and iOS devices.
