####Drug dispute leads to fight at Rock Bridge High School

At 8 a.m. Thursday, two students were reported fighting in the Rock Bridge High School north parking lot. Jason L. Schilke, 19, sent a text message to sell Christopher Shane Bowman, 17, drugs, Columbia Police Department spokeswoman Latisha Stroer said.

Schilke had a knife in his waistband before the fight. Witnesses said they saw Schilke selling old prescription medicine. Police searched Schilke’s vehicle and found three knives as well as multiple prescription medications.

Schilke admitted to his involvement in the drug sale and possessing a knife, but said he did not show it. He was charged with unlawful use of weapons and distribution, delivery, manufacture, or production of a controlled substance, according to CPD records. Bowman was arrested for a municipal charge of assault and he was released on a signature summons.
