Players, fans take cover after incident at Miami high school football game

An incident in the stands caused a major high school football game in Florida to be temporarily delayed on Friday night.

During the third quarter of a game between Miami’s Carol City and Northwestern, there were reports of an incident that required the presence of law enforcement officials.

A few reporters said fans went running for cover while players either got down or cleared off the field:

Play resumed, but there was understandably a different feel surrounding the remainder of the game.

ABC 10 later reported that police officers responded for “a male’s laceration and a cheerleader who suffered an asthma attack.”

Carol City, ranked among the top teams in the state and country, went on to win the game 28-7. The game was a big one for those who follow high school football in South Florida. Area native Chad Johnson took in the game from what he called the “best seats in the house.”
