ALEXANDRIA, VA. — Two West Potomac High School teens are facing a misdemeanor hazing charge for an incident in the boys’ locker room before a baseball game two years ago.

Police first learned of the incident in March of this year from a school staff member who filed a report.

A number of students and members of the school staff were interviewed to determine whether the incident rose to a criminal level.

The investigation found two students hazed another student in the locker room before a game in 2016—the details of the hazing were not revealed.

After consultation with the Office of the Commonwealth’s Attorney for Fairfax County, petitions were issued for the two students, both now 17 years old. They are each facing one count of hazing. Their names are being withheld due to their age.
