A teacher in California faces child abuse charges after a video shows him punching a 14-year-old student.
Marston Riley, 64, was teaching his music class at Maywood Academy High School when the altercation with the student occurred.
A student recorded the incident with their phone. It shows a student confronting and taunting Marston until he snaps and punches the student repeatedly until another person intervenes.
“We take this matter very seriously and do not condone violence or intolerance of any kind,” said Shannon Haber of L.A. Unified Schools.
Marston is scheduled for court on November 30th.
