A teenager who fired a gun during an after-school skirmish at Fairfield High School in September was already awaiting sentencing in a separate gun assault case at the time and will serve six months in detention for both cases, police said.

The Fairfield Police Department said multiple rounds were fired at an occupied vehicle during the Sep.16 altercation in the school parking lot, but no one was hurt. In a social media post on Thursday , police said officers arrived within 60 seconds of the initial report, but the suspect fled before they arrived.

The investigation led to the unidentified suspect's surrender within days. Police said investigators learned that he had been found guilty of assault with a firearm, with a gun enhancement, in a separate case and was awaiting sentencing.
