Seventh-grade students at Virginia’s Jonesville Middle School tackled a fellow student who allegedly attacked a teacher with a knife on Thursday.
WJHL reported that the alleged attack occurred Thursday morning and involved a “cutlery knife.” The student who allegedly carried out the attack said he got “the knife from the school’s kitchen,” the sheriff said.
The alleged attacker was subdued by a group of fellow students. ABC News quoted Lee County Sheriff Gary Parsons saying, “Several students came in and tackled the kid, got him down and controlled him.”
Sheriff Parsons noted, “The student’s been charged with aggravated malicious wounding and assault, and he’s been taken into juvenile detention. Of course. And there’ll be a court appearance at a later date.”
The teacher’s injuries were not life-threatening.
No details on what led up to the attack were released.
