Three Central Catholic High School students face criminal charges after a fight that left a St. Thomas Aquinas High School student with a broken jaw.
The fight took place March 17 just before midnight in a parking lot on the St. Michael’s Church property on Fulton Drive NW near the Whipple Avenue NW intersection in Plain Township, according to a Stark County Sheriff’s report. Between 30 and 40 high school students had gone to the lot after spending the night exchanging insults during telephone calls.
It’s a matter of a high school rivalry going too far, said City Prosecutor Frank Forchione. Several student athletes from both schools became entangled in the brawl.
One of those athletes — George Tabron, 18, of 5201 Harmont Ave. NE, Plain Township — has been charged with felonious assault. He was released from the Stark County Jail on Tuesday after his family posted 10 percent of a $50,000 bond.
Charges of delinquency by felonious assault have been filed in Stark County Family Court against two 17-year-old Central Catholic students and football teammates Jon Friedman and Marcello Natale. They were released from the Stark County Multi-Attention Center, put on an electronic home monitor and will have a court hearing next week.
The trio are accused of beating Nick Pederzolli, 18, of Overlook Drive in Alliance. Pederzolli, a junior at Aquinas, has had one surgery to repair a broken jaw and could face more surgeries.
The extent of Pederzolli’s injuries convinced Forchione to file the felonious assault charges. “It’s a very, very serious injury to him,” Forchione said.
The injury has delayed Pederzolli’s participation on the Aquinas track team this season. He is among Stark County’s fastest 400-meter runners and placed fifth in the event in the Division III state track and field meet last June.
Tabron, meanwhile, earned second-team all-Ohio honors last fall while playing linebacker for Central Catholic. A junior, Tabron already was attracting the attention of some Division I college football programs.
