ON VIDEO | A 15-year-old student throws a chair at her teacher’s head

A 15-year-old student at a Michigan school is accused of “unacceptable act of violence” for throwing a metal chair at her teacher’s head.

In a viral video filmed Thursday, a conflict escalates between two students at Southwestern Classical Academy. The teacher places herself between the two students to calm the situation, while they shout insults at each other. All it takes is a moment when the teacher’s back is turned, and one of the two students takes a metal chair and throws it in her direction.

According to the images, the teacher collapsed to the ground in reaction to the object falling on her head and remained motionless for more than seven seconds on the floor.

The two students involved in the conflict were arrested when security intervened. The Genesee County Prosecutor’s Office has charged the woman who threw the chair at the teacher with two counts of aggravated assault, according to ABC 12.

The teacher was taken to hospital to treat her head injury but is in stable condition.

In a written letter, the school mentions that they are working on the file and the return to work of the professor in question. “We take this responsibility very seriously. We assure you that our school is safe and suitable for learning,” she says.
