Police and firefighters attended the canteen at Encamp's secondary school on Wednesday afternoon after a second-year student threw a fork that struck a first-year pupil in the head during a lunchtime altercation.
The incident took place shortly after 1:30pm in the school's dining area. Initial alerts suggested one student had stabbed another with a fork, but police inquiries later clarified that a second-year girl threw the utensil, which by chance hit a first-year ESO boy on the head, causing a superficial but openly bleeding cut.
Canteen staff first summoned firefighters, who provided on-site treatment to the boy before transferring him to hospital for further evaluation. Fire personnel also notified police, who attended, documented the incident as an aggression, and contacted the families of both students involved. No arrests were made, as both parties are minors.
The injured boy's parents will decide whether to file a formal complaint against the girl, which could lead to a police report and referral to judicial authorities.
Police confirmed the sequence of events but released no additional details on the students or the fight's origins. Further updates are pending.
