WASHINGTON COUNTY, Ga. (13WMAZ) -- A Washington County, Georgia girl is in surgery today after allegedly being attacked by three other girls in school Monday, 13WMAZ.com reported Friday.

Her mother says Jessica Kirkland already had a floating lesion on her brain that became worse as a result of the fight.

When doctors examined her at the Washington County Regional Medical Center, they found that the lesion had been loosened as a result of the fight at Washington County High School, said Tracy Kirkland, the girl's mother. They sent her to the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta, she said.
