Shocking footage captured the moment two police officers fought off several teen girls as they attempted to break up a wild catfight outside a school.
The melee unfolded around 3pm Thursday outside Entrepreneur High School in Highland, California, as a witness filmed the fight escalate to the point where one girl punched and pulled a female officer by the hair.
It reportedly began as officers with the San Bernadino school police attempted to break up a fight in the school parking lot, and the footage begins as several other girls join in the scrum.
As a female officer handcuffed one girl on the ground, a male officer shoved two teens away as he yelled: ‘Back up, back up.’
One of the girls then screamed expletives in his face, and struck the officer in retaliation to him pushing her away from the fight.
When the girl then attempted to attack the female officer handcuffing another teen on the ground, the male officer swept her legs and took her to the ground as well to put her under arrest.
At that moment, another girl joined in the chaotic scene as she screamed at the female officer to ‘get off of her’, and pulled out her phone to film the confrontation.
It appeared the first girl who was arrested had been fighting the second, as when she was picked up in handcuffs she screamed in the other girl’s face as she lay on the ground.

The wild brawl escalated further as another woman in a red top and sweatpants flew into the fight.
Squaring up face-to-face with the female officer, she appeared to say: ‘Don’t touch me… goddamn, we’re gonna fight.’
She approached one of the teen girls who was already handcuffed by one of the officers, telling her to ‘stop, stop’ and appearing to refer to the girl as her daughter.
After a brief moment where the officers and the woman spoke, the girl who was first put in handcuffs then attacked the female officer again.
‘Get the f*** off of her,’ the older woman in red yelled at the female officer as she defended herself from being struck by the teenager.
In a shocking act as the female officer confronted the older woman, another teen snuck up behind the cop and grabbed her by the hair.
