A North Carolina high schooler has been charged with assault after allegedly being caught on camera slapping a teacher during a profanity-filled exchange.
The incident involving the unidentified juvenile occurred at Parkland High School in Winston-Salem on April 15, the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office (FCSO) said on Facebook. Video posted online shows the student standing over a teacher who is seated before striking her in the face.
“Do you think that affected me in any way?” the teacher can be heard asking.
“Want me to hit you again?” the student says, while stepping up and repeating the question.
