A spokeswoman for the city Education Department declined to comment on why school safety agents needed to handcuff Dennis, saying the incident was under investigation.

The NYPD, which oversees school safety agents, also declined to discuss specifics. Deputy Police Commissioner Paul Browne said, "We hope common sense would prevail and we are looking at what happened."

Twas NOT a cop that handcuffed this child and from the article I see they have not expressed support of the action. Seems to me there are methods of handling a five year old kindergartener short of handcuffs and the padded wagon.
