#ThugLife Hulking 280-pound student beats elderly teacher to the ground – with instructor claiming school refused to arrest unruly ‘man child’ February 28, 2024 | Selim Algar https://nypost.com/2024/02/28/us-news/indiana-teacher-bob-gooding-says-school-refused-to-arrest-student-who-hit-him/ Adding to the shocking spate of school violence across the nation, a 74-year-old Indiana substitute teacher claims he suffered a gruesome black eye from a teen — and teachers stopped him being arrested. Shellshocked Rob Gooding, of Indianapolis, told News 8 he was serving as a substitute at Perry Meridian High School on February 1 when an unruly student suddenly approached him during a business class. The hulking teen — who Gooding claims stood over 6 feet — raised his Chromebook and was poised to crash it down on his head. “I saw him come up, and he said, ‘I’ve had it,’ and he came down and I blocked the Chromebook. That’s where the hole was,” Gooding said, pointing to a wound on his forearm. “This man child was 6-feet-2, 280 pounds,” he said. But the student then shoved the elderly instructor to the ground in front of shocked students and rained down punches on his head. “He hovered over me and with his left hand whammed me,” Gooding told the station. Paramedics rushed to the scene and found the dazed teacher suffering from a grisly knot on his forehead and a deep black eye. Gooding told a school resource officer who arrived with the emergency crews he wanted his assailant arrested and prosecuted. But the officer told him school administrators forbade him from doing so. “Then he said to me, ‘We have been instructed by the higher-ups, which is the district, not to handcuff, or arrest the kid,’ and I said, ‘What?’ and he said, ‘Yes, that came from the higher-ups,’” Gooding said.
