HOUSTON - Aldine ISD police say a 16-year-old student at Nimitz High School was so upset with his substitute teacher for taking his phone, he pushed her onto the ground.
The video shows the student, who's described as 6 foot 3 and 325 lbs., standing up and pushing the teacher three times and on the third time the 66-year-old woman fell to the ground.
"We have a school policy that we can't use phones, we can't use phones during the day, so she was right to take his phone. For him to act that way, it isn't worth it," said student Daija Owen.
Police say the teenager was using his phone in class and got physical with the substitute teacher to get it back.
"The substitute teacher confiscated a cell phone from a 16-year-old male student. The student attempted to retrieve his cell phone. He got up and shoved the substitute teacher, shoved her repeatedly and eventually shoved her to the ground," Aldine ISD spokesperson Jason Spencer said.
The student actually walked himself to the principal's office to turn himself in. He was charged with injury to the elderly. His name isn't being released because he is a minor.
The substitute teacher, who is retired full-time teacher, was rushed to the hospital with minor injuries and released a short time later.
There is no word on whether the student will return to class.
Every time there is an “incident” in a public “school”, I smile a little. Keep em coming. At one point, parents will have it enough and the “right to education” mentality will be done for good.
If you make education an earned privilege, not only will you have these little monsters not waste tax payers’ money, but get on with their usual lives (in juvis and then to prisons) far sooner.
I knew without looking that it was one of Obama’s sons.
the student, who’s described as 6 foot 3 and 325 lbs.
Dang, that’s a mountain!”
He is a mountain. The teacher is not only older but is tiny, tiny, particularly by comparison. She’s lucky he didn’t pick her up and slam her against the wall. Lots of local news coverage on it. Just don’t understand why they would even consider putting him back in any class in any school, except perhaps reform school. IMO, he should have been taken immediately to jail. Just another reason to question why anyone would want to teach in some of our public schools.
If he’s just a regular student, “throw him in jail and bury the key”. If he’s a 5-* athlete, “He’s just a kid who made a mistake.”
This has nothing to do with unions, sorry.
Unless people understand they are responsible for cultivating their free education the public schools will continue to be medicore. Maybe this is the problem with offering anything for free.
This is how they really think.
That... is amazing. That's mental illness, there. That's got to be some sort of mental illness.
You should have warned us that we needed to warm up first, Mr. CrimsonShoe.
I have pulled a hamstring and I will be unable to get to the unemployment office this week for my weekly allowance.
I will be having my attorneys, ‘Dewey, Cheatem and Howe’, contact you to schedule the first of many payments for the hurt, embarrassment, disfigurement and pain that you have caused me.
Have a good day sir.
The student is another dead eyed zombie. He has no idea why he did it. Hes operating on the level of an amoeba
student large black male
teacher- rotund 66 year white old woman. Her fat insulated her from getting hurt IMO
They should begin their investigation by tazing him unconscious, slapping cuffs and irons on him, and have him get injured while resisting arrest.
And shoot his dog.
Another one of Obama’s “sons” displaying the award winning attributes of the sunburned Amish we have all come to love and cherish. /sarc/
This POS needs to be charged with assault against a senior citizen. I hope he will be charged as an adult. He won’t need his cell phone in prison.
Jesse Jackson and Al Not-soSharpton will be commenting that the sub is racist and a technophobe. They’ll say he need the cell phone because it is a cultural issue.
Wats a bro have to do yo get invited to the wh for a beer?
Everyone else laughed - what does that tell you about the next generation?
Really?
You think an EBT card should cover five-figure legal civil awards for thug misbehavior??
Oh look. He’s ‘amish’. What a surprise.
“There is no word on whether the student will return to class.”
The fact that this is even in question is disturbing.
There's nothing "future" about it.
I would lay odds that it was an Obamaphone, or a phone "purchased" by the sale of half a dozen Obamaphones.
