MANASSAS, Va. (WUSA) -- They call themselves the "Christmas Sweater Club" because they wear the craziest ones they can find. But they also sing Christmas songs at school and try their best to spread Christmas cheer.


But now all 10 of them are in trouble because of what they did at their school, Battlefield High School.

"They said we were maliciously wounding other kids. But nobody intentionally tried to do that, or did," said Zakk Rhine, a junior at Battlefield.

The boys say they were just tossing small two-inch candy canes to fellow students as they entered school. The ones that are in plastic wrap and are so small they often break apart.
