The Cumberland County Sheriff's Office arrested a 19-year-old man after a stray bullet fired during a fight struck a 15-year-old boy attending a fashion show at Westover High School Friday night.

Investigators said that Johnson and several other people got into an argument during the fashion show shortly after 10 p.m. They moved outside and started to fight in a parking lot.

Shots were fired, and a stray bullet hit the boy in the foot as he was walking out of the high school at 2465 Gillespie St., investigators said. He was taken by ambulance to Cape Fear Valley Medical Center.
