A teen who allegedly attacked two of his school teachers is being charged as an adult, prosecutors confirmed - after one of the suspected strikes went viral.
Aquavis Hickman, a 17-year-old student at Parkland High School in North Carolina, was indicted on the assault and kidnapping charges last week, Forsyth County District Attorneys said.
He is being charged as an adult in the two separate attacks, one of which was filmed.
In the first, un-filmed incident, he allegedly attacked a male teacher at the school on February, and in their statement, prosecutors said he did not act alone.
Then, last month, officials claimed the teen walked up to a female teacher and smacked her twice, with footage of the alleged attack later circulating on social media. It has yet to be released by cops.
Scroll down for video:
'That video went viral nationwide and it put us on the map in a negative manner,' Winston-Salem Police Chief William Penn told Fox affiliate WGHP-TV News during a joint press conference following Hickman's arrest Thursday.
'I am so glad today that the rest of the nation will also hear that we do not tolerate that in Winston-Salem and Forsyth County.'
Also in attendance were Forsyth County District Attorney Jim O'Neill and Forsyth County Sheriff Bobby Kimbrough, at a meeting intended to serve as the first step in taking a stand against violence against educators, organizers said.
'Our message to our community is simple,' O'Neill told reporters around a crowded podium.
'We stand with the teachers. We will fight to protect those teachers. And if you lay a hand on a teacher and assault a teacher, you can expect that the punishment will be swift and severe. Promise made. Promise kept.'

I though that was Aquaduck.
Did he at least learn Pig Latin?
Another Roman of the patrician class ...

This is not the place for light bulb jokes.
Aquavis doesn't appear to be a Pole.
Then, last month, officials claimed the teen walked up to a female teacher and smacked her twice, with footage of the alleged attack later circulating on social media.
Spoiler alert: They were both male teachers. The "female" teacher in the video that went viral is a tranny.
Too bad if this piece of feral offal happened to have the living daylights beaten out of him on his way home, right? And then booked for assault.
Something tells me he's not a Roman either.
I’m sure the mugshot is out there but DM just chose not to show Aquaman or what ever his name is
First step?
They should have taken a first step long ago to stop violence against teachers. I'm guessing the publicity has compelled them to say they intend to do something.
These weak authorities are part of the problem.
It’s all about freedom of speech, no matter what the profanities were. In fact, slapping the teacher across her face, is freedom of speech. No better way to express oneself than being violent. Antifa and BLM and other groups do that all the time.
Anything goes nowadays, and if you object, you’re evil and will be brought up on charges.
If he’s slapping teachers, what’s he doing to other students?
Aquarius’ grades are going to dip if he spends too much time in court with this .
“If he’s slapping teachers, what’s he doing to other students?”
Putting on a dress and going into the girls’ bathroom
Which is worse, ‘*****’ or ‘******’?
Was she sexually harassing him? That’s pretty common these days.
Aquavis . . . Should I guess?
Teen?
When I was in the 6th grade, I became friends with a black kid named Billy. After knowing him for about a month, I noticed that he was making zero progress in Reading.
I said, “Billy, why aren’t you trying harder in Reading class? You know, as you get older we will be competing with an awful lot of kids our age (this was in 1957.)”
As I recall he ignored me and stopped socializing with me.
...teen?
