A Texas middle school student violently threw a teacher against the wall as he attacked a peer in front of the distraught students on Monday.
The teacher tried to break up the fight during an “isolated incident” between the peers at Hurshel Antwine Middle School in El Paso.
One student hurled a couple of punches at his classmate and grabbed the teacher, who inserted herself in between the students before he threw her aside and unleashed several more punches.
A third student started to punch the aggressor while the teacher got back to her feet and stopped the child from becoming involved in the fight.
“Hello, this is Patricia Fernandez, principal of Hurshel Antwine Middle School. I am calling to inform you that an altercation occurred among students in a classroom on our campus today,” a message sent to parents and obtained by KVIA read.
“This was an isolated incident between individual students. The students involved are being addressed by administration and law enforcement, as appropriate. There was no threat to other students or the campus. Thank you for your continued trust and support of Hurshel Antwine Middle School and Team SISD.”
Last month a North Carolina high school student was seen slapping his teacher twice across the face in a profanity-filled classroom tantrum.
The rage-filled youngster, identified only as a minor, confronted the educator inside Parkland High School in Winston-Salem, where he violently attacked her, according to video posted to social media.
He was charged with one count of communicating threats and two counts of misdemeanor assault, the Forsyth Sheriff’s Office announced.
