Teacher beat up by 5 students
Man, teachers soon are going to start requiring hazard pay. Just a week after a Cleveland teacher was beat up by her students, five kids at a McAllen, Texas, “alternative school” put the smackdown on their teacher:
The incident began with a confrontation between a student and the teacher at the Mercedes Discipline Alternative Education Program, then the other four joined in, Mercedes Independent School District Interim Superintendent Walter Watson said.
“It wound up that five boys beat him up rather badly,” he said.
The teacher was taken to a hospital and received stitches for a cut over his eyebrow, Watson said. He also had other small cuts, scratches and bruises.
The students, ranging in age from 14 to 16, were to be detained at the Hidalgo County Juvenile detention center for about two weeks before a hearing, Watson. It was not clear what charges they would face.
