7:49 p.m. Police responded to a fight in the north parking lot of Woodward Middle School on Sportsman Club Road.

The fight occurred between a wife and her husband’s girlfriend.

The married couple are getting a divorce, but share custody of their two children. They were in the process of exchanging the two children when one of the kids began acting out with the wife. She went inside the school to calm down, and when she returned outside, the girlfriend was present at her husband’s car. The girlfriend asked if she was going to get the car seats for the children.

The two women then walked toward each other and the clash began as the two pulled each other’s hair and struck one another. They were separated by others in the parking lot.

Both parties reported and agreed that the wife began the fight and assaulted the girlfriend. Police did not arrest her at that time because she had the children with her.

Police sent a report to the prosecutor’s office for review.
