A mother and an adult man were arrested after police say they got involved in a Florida elementary school fight Friday, multiple outlets reported.
Germikia Denise Freeman, 32, was picking up her sons at Poinciana Park Elementary School in Miami with Charles Nathaniel Webb, 37 when she saw one of her boys in a fight, Local 10 reported.
The Miami-Dade Schools Police arrest report obtained by 7 News Miami said the two ran over to the fight together. Freeman grabbed one of the kids and “violently thrust him back and forth causing the victim to fall to the ground,” and Webb punched a kid in the nose, the report stated, according to 7 News.

School urges parents to 'act responsibly'
Court records show the two made their first court appearance Tuesday on charges of child abuse without great bodily harm, trespassing on school grounds after a warning and interfering with an educational institution.
According to 7 News, the parents said they have reported bullying to school in the past and plan to relocate their kids.
Freeman and Webb have pleaded not guilty, and their lawyers as listed in court records did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment.
Miami-Dade County Public Schools told USA TODAY it is aware of the incident.
"The students involved were disciplined according to the Code of Student Conduct and the other individuals have been arrested. M-DCPS works diligently to promote core values such as respect and integrity among students," the district said in an emailed statement. "We urge parents to do their part by acting responsibly and serving as good role models for their children. Students are also reminded that negative behaviors may result in life-altering consequences.”
