A Milwaukee high school student was arrested after repeatedly punching a teacher in a horrifying incident that was caught on camera.
The video shows the student striking the South Division High School teacher once in the face, causing the instructor to collapse before the student stands over him and continues delivering blow after blow.
According to Fox6, the circumstances behind the fight aren’t clear, but at the beginning of the video, the teacher and the student appeared to be arguing before the confrontation turned violent.
The student is currently facing charges of battery to a school district official, and the case is expected to be presented to the district attorney’s office in the upcoming days. The teacher did sustain injuries, but those injuries are not life-threatening, the news station notes.

DISCUSSION
OMG. What happened? I wish there was sound so we can have an idea of why that kid flipped out the way he did on the teacher. Whatever the interaction must have been a snapping moment. Wonder what happened to the kid before hand.
As a soon-to-be teacher, I hope I can deescalate if a situation like this arises for me. I hope the teacher is okay and the student is getting some help.
