One of the adults involved in the school fight among parents and students at Yazoo City High School has turned herself into the authorities.
Bessie Young was charged with simple assault, trespassing, disturbing the peace with profanity and disturbing the peace by fighting.
Capt. Tilmon Clifton said other warrants have also been issued for two other adults involved in the altercation.
“They know who they are, and they know there are warrants out,” Clifton said. “We are giving them the opportunity to turn themselves in to us. If not, we will pick them up by any means necessary.”
Clifton said more charges are also pending with the case.

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
