POLICE are investigating a viral fight involving three teenage girls at Dataran Melang in Kuala Pilah after a 15-year-old girl was allegedly injured during a confrontation arising from a dispute over the circulation of her photograph on social media.
Kuala Pilah district police chief Superintendent Muhamad Mustafah Hussin said police received a report on the incident last Wednesday.
“In the incident, a 15-year-old female student is said to have gone to Dataran Melang with her brother to meet two acquaintances.
