A Texas baseball coach was chased and beaten by a group of middle-school students in an act of retaliation against him, news outlets report.
The attack was captured on cell phone video now circulating on social media, and shows a Houston high school employee running from four students, who can be seen punching the man and knocking him to the ground.
(Warning: This video contains graphic language.)
Officials with Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District confirmed to TV station KTRK that the assault took place at Langham Creek High School on Feb. 10.
The attackers are students at Aragon Middle School, the outlet reported, and the victim is Michael Shott, an assistant baseball coach and physics teacher at Langham Creek High School.
Shott suffered a broken arm from the attack and is recovering, his mother, Peggy Shott, told KTRK.
“The reason it happened to him was because he was doing his job,” she said.
Students and social media users say Shott was jumped because he told the students they couldn’t ride dirt bikes or ATVs on school grounds, outlets report.
The students were arrested, but soon after threats to shoot up the school were made, and the district tightened security, KABB reported.
“We couldn’t walk around unless we had an ID badge, they wouldn’t even let us in,” sophomore Alena Gonzales told the TV station.
The district sent a letter to parents stating that the juveniles had been taken into custody and would be disciplined, according to the outlet. How they will be disciplined, or if they will face charges, is not clear.
“These kids need to get into a whole lot of trouble,” one parent told the station. “I’m just speechless.”

The kids have been caught and will face "discipline" according to sources involved.
Just checked to see if the youts were of a certain category which I had already assumed. YEP.
No need to look.
I figured I didn’t have to look. Thanks for the confirmation.
I am not surprised that this happened. But I am surprised that Yahoo is reporting it.
They get bolder and more violent with each passing week.
If Obama had a kid would he look like these kids?
ahhhhhh yes... another racist is created by the very people who complain about racism against them.
government “schools”
You mean if Obama and Big Mike had adopted a boy instead of two girls.
Strangely a couple with a gay man and a transvestite prefer to adopt girls and lesbian couples prefer to adopt boys. Does anyone know why?
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

But the Networks descended because the Covington kid smirked too much.
Aggressive smirking.
ATVs and dirt bikes aren’t cheap, and ya need fuel.
Follow the money.
When I was that age, we were afraid to leave trash on school grounds for fear of CONSEQUENCES.
The school should turn these thugs over to the police to face criminal charges, but I doubt they will. Most school districts in the area have their own police departments to sweep things under the rug.
I'm sure they'll try to blame Joe Rogan.
Best video of a sidewalk I’ve ever seen.
What target are you over and how did you get over it so fast?
