FALL RIVER, Mass. (WPRI) — B.M.C. Durfee High School's homecoming and senior night football game scheduled for Friday has been postponed.

"While this incident is not directly connected to our school community alone, we believe it is in everyone's best interest to take extra precautions to ensure the safety and enjoyment of this special event," Curley explained.
12 News has reached out to Fall River police to ask about the details of the altercation.
The game will now take place at noon Saturday.
