WELLSTON, Mo. — Alarming video shows a melee involving a female student throwing blows, kicking and dragging a high school teacher in Missouri. Now the student may face criminal charges as a result of the beating, according to reports.
Video shows the student dragging the science teacher who is already on the ground. It appears the teacher tries to restrain the student as the girl kicks and throws blows outside the classroom on Wednesday. The unidentified 65-year-old teacher at Normandy High School in Wellston was left battered, confused and hospitalized.
“She’s banged up pretty bad,” Greg Stanton said of his female companion, KSDK reported. “She really couldn’t talk. She don’t understand why (she was attacked). She was crying.”
One video clip saturating social media shows the St. Louis County educator on the floor desperately trying to defend herself from the student hovering over her while throwing blows to the woman’s head.
The female student continues to smack the educator even when she rolls on top of her, clenching the teacher between her legs as other students occupy the hallway and sound off in the background.
Finally, some fellow students try to pull the girl off the teacher, who rises to her feet just to get knocked over by another person trying to break up the brawl.
A male teacher intervenes and hollers, “Stop! Stop!” while another student leads the screaming girl away, the New York Post reported.
Students say the fight began when the teacher confronted the girl for going to her locker to get medication, which was to help with seizures, according to Trending Politics co-owner Collin Rugg, one of those to share the footage.
“Our school system is a mess,” he said.

A second clip shows the girl on her back in the hallway with her wrists restrained, seemingly suffering a seizure, with someone trying to make sure she didn’t choke, reported the New York Post.
However, it is unclear if the student required additional medical care or was also hospitalized.
St. Louis police confirmed that they will seek criminal charges against the unidentified teenager in juvenile court, KDSK reported.
