Once again a video of a disrespectful and violent student attacking a teacher has gone viral. The incident occurred at Frederick Douglass High School in Baltimore, Maryland, and is shocking.
A Facebook user uploaded the video and stated that the unidentified teacher had just returned to school after recovering from cancer surgery. In the video, an unidentified female student is seen arguing with the teacher before viciously punching her in the face. The student is then removed from the classroom.
