A student provided CBS News Miami with a video that showed fists flying and hair pulling as fights raged on as others tried to break them up.

“It’s upsetting because we’re talking about adults attacking children,” said Alexandria McNichols whose daughter was one of the students assaulted. “This is a nightmare, a security nightmare.”

McNichols said she had previously gone to the school and spoke to the principal because her daughter was being bullied. She said nothing came of it.

According to Miami-Dade police, McNichol’s daughter and two other students were attacked while they headed to lunch.

McNichols wants to know how they made it on campus without being stopped.

“These adults were able to come onto school grounds and roam the campus and find students to assault. My thing is, where is the security, where is the protection for these kids,” she said.
