<p>At least 10 middle school students have been suspended after a teacher confiscated a videotape that showed them fighting.</p><p>The video shows the boys fighting at their bus stop and another clip shows them fighting in the school, Appling Middle School principal Robert Stevenson said.</p><p>"They said they were just playing," Stevenson said. "I was disturbed by it."</p><p>The video was made with a handheld video camera that one of the students probably smuggled into the school, Stevenson said. School policy forbids bringing video cameras.</p><p>Campus police are reviewing the tape, Stevenson said.</p><p>Campus Police Chief Russell Bentley said Wednesday that he has not interviewed the students for possible motives.</p><p>"That's never a way to settle a dispute," Bentley said. And if students were just playing, "Horseplay can escalate and get someone hurt."</p><p>___</p><p>HASH(0x1cd9c7c)</p>
