I don't know anything about this situation and names have not been released, so maybe it wasn't gang related.
But, to say there is no gang problem is absurd. There is a gang problem in every high school in America. In the last 2 years, West Bladen had many confirmed gang related fights including a stabbing and a shooting in the parking lot. Most of these stories were covered right here on WWAY. So, I guess we are to assume all of those students have left since there is no gang problem. Very unlikely! But even if they did leave, they have other brothers, sisters, and "homies". Many of the gangs include the entire family, even including the parents! Also, they continually recruit middle school students to replace the older ones who end up in jail or dead. It's their way of life!
All the gang members left?
