[CINCINNATI] A 33-year-old Millvale man is wanted on on suspicion of starting a fight that led to a brawl during a punch-and-cookies reception after a kindergarten graduation Monday, prompting an elementary school to be placed on lockdown.Raymond Walker is charged with assault and inducing panic in the 11:30 a.m. disturbance at Mt. Healthy North Elementary School, 2170 Struble Road in Springfield Township, court records show.
Walker is accused of starting a fight with another man, Dominique Garrett, and injuring him, according to police.
The dispute sparked a brawl involving up to 20 others after the 150 kindergartners graduated and were snacking on punch and cookies in the school cafeteria.
"The assault did induce panic during the assembly, causing several in attendance to be pushed," Springfield Township police wrote in a sworn statement filed in Hamilton County Municipal Court. "The school was placed on lockdown and then eventually evacuated."
Walker left the school before authorities arrived. His last known address is the 1900 block of Neyer Avenue in Millvale, on Cincinnati's west side.
