KZN police spokesperson Thenjiswa Ngcobo says the demonstration was over the arrests of four pupils suspected to be linked to a murder on Sunday.
"A 27-year-old man was allegedly assaulted at Trenance Park in Verulam. The four suspects appeared before Verulam Magistrate's Court today [Friday].
"During the protest action there was no injuries or property damaged."
