FORD CITY, PA — The Armstrong High School student involved in the attack of a transgender teen late last month will be disciplined by the district and could face criminal prosecution, according to a school board member.
The Oct. 27 incident, which was videotaped and circulated on social media, shows a 14-year-old being pulled down steps from behind and then punched repeatedly by a cisgender male student, our news partners at the Tribune Review reported.
“The administration and the school board are well aware of this incident and the video tape that is circulating,” said Todd Luke, president of the Armstrong School Board. “We are 100% behind [the student] and, as a board, we are listening to the community.”
