NINE LA VERNIA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ARRESTED FOR HAZING
Nine Texas high school students have been charged with sexual assault in a hazing scandal involving athletes.
La Vernia Police say seven juveniles and two adults have been charged in allegations dating back as far as 2014.
All nine have at some point been athletes at La Vernia High School. Authorities say the hazing primarily involved the football team, but the basketball and baseball teams were also involved to a lesser degree.
La Vernia is a city of about 1,000 residents about 20 miles east of San Antonio.
The juveniles were arrested last week and have been released to their parents. The adults were arrested Monday and were booked into the Wilson County Jail in Floresville.
