A Pittsburgh Public School teacher was seriously injured after officials say she was followed in her car and assaulted after school, allegedly in a dispute over a child’s cellphone.
Hours after the incident, late on Wednesday night, Pittsburgh Police confirmed to KDKA that they are working on an arrest warrant or warrants for a suspect or suspects in the case, who remain unidentified.
The incident reportedly started at Pittsburgh King PreK-8 School on the North Side earlier on Wednesday. Sources described to KDKA’s Marty Griffin a “rather shocking and violent incident.”
The district has a “no cell phone” policy. The teacher, identified as 46-year-old Janice Watkins, confiscated a phone from a fourth grade girl, who then allegedly bit her. Sources say the student’s parents came to school, with the mother allegedly telling the teacher she was “going to get even.”

It's a cellphone! People are nuts.
ReplyDeleteThese are not people, they are animals and they walk among us. The schools around here have some of these monsters in them. Albeit a small amount, but there is danger lurking.
ReplyDeleteNo they are people. Animals raise their young better, they don't stalk and attack for revenge.
DeleteThe mother is in for some deep trouble, along with her little gang. All over a cellphone that the kid wasn't supposed to have. The judge is going to have a ball with this.
ReplyDeleteDid this mother by any chance wear a cowboy hat?
ReplyDeleteMaybe no cowboy hat, but she should plan on wearing orange.

ReplyDeleteLOL! No, there's whackadoodles without cowboy hats, too. See Maxine Waters as the main arguing point there. I think it's older-crazy-black-lady-Democrat-been-in-office-too- dang-long disease. Sane, legal voters required for the cure; cure uncertain at this time.
Fourth grade is too old to be biting people; I guess we can see where her bad behaviour is taught from! I'm saying it every day now, regarding numerous issues: people have been acting as if they've lost their damned minds!
