MCINTYRE, Ga. — The Wilkinson County Sheriff's Office says a deputy tased a 15-year-old girl during a fight after a high school basketball game.

It happened after 10 p.m. Saturday at the Wilkinson County High School gym, according to an incident report.

The report does not described the fight or how it broke out, but it says the girl is charged with aggravated assault on an officer, obstructing an officer and aggravated assault.

The report lists the weapon used by the girl as “hands/feet.”

Officer Kelvin Hollingsworth filed the incident report and listed himself as the victim of the assault.

The incident report says the fight happened at a game between Georgia Military College and Wilkinson County High School.
