ST. CLOUD, Minn. - Tensions remain high in St. Cloud following a walkout and protest by Somali students alleging a pattern of bullying and discrimination against them.Reports of a fight triggered a lockdown at St. Cloud Technical High School Friday, summoning police, sheriff's deputies and State Troopers to the same place more than 100 students and parents gathered on the lawn Wednesday to protest what they describe as an insufficient response by Tech teachers and administrators to their concerns.Lt. Jeff Oxton of the St. Cloud Police Department says Friday's altercation never rose to a criminal level, and authorities stayed on hand mostly to keep the situation calm. He said school district officials will have to release details on how many students were involved in the incident and exactly what set things off.
