Juvenile was adjudicated in the Juvenile Court for violating city ordinance prohibiting disturbing the peace. Juvenile appealed.
The Supreme Court of Nebraska held that:
- A school security officer could be found to be the victim of disturbing the peace, and
- Evidence was sufficient to support the juvenile court’s adjudication of jurisdiction over juvenile.
A school security officer could be found to be the victim of disturbing the peace, for the purpose of city ordinance providing that “It shall be unlawful for any person to intentionally or knowingly disturb the peace and quiet of any person.”
Evidence was sufficient to support the juvenile court’s adjudication of jurisdiction over juvenile, who was charged with violating city ordinance prohibiting disturbing the peace; school security officer placed himself between two students, juvenile reached around officer, struck student, and grabbed her hair, officer continued to try and stop juvenile, and juvenile’s grip on student’s hair was so forceful it brought juvenile, student, and officer to the ground.
