Elementary School
Saturday, April 12, 2008
NEW YORK - Police say they have arrested a Bronx teacher after she bit an
11-year-old student on the shoulder at the child's elementary school.
Police say the 44-year-old teacher is charged with third-degree assault and
endangering the welfare of a child. Both are misdemeanors.
Police could not immediately say what motivated the teacher to bite the
student. They say she bit him while they were in the cafeteria of P.S. 79.
The mother of the child refused medical attention for him. Police say his
skin was not broken by the bite.
A spokeswoman for the Department of Education says the teacher will be
reassigned away from the school and students, pending the outcome of the
case.
