In the wake of increasing gang violence, the Scranton School District will be increasing security on school properties. The district made that announcement on Monday, following an uptick in fighting and threats of violence between students at West Scranton schools and at Memorial Stadium. The district says it's now adding security to West Scranton High and West Scranton Intermediate as well as at Memorial Stadium.
