20 Treated After Being Pepper Sprayed In Texas Classroom
EL PASO, Texas (AP) — An El Paso school district says a student is facing discipline after releasing what appears to be pepper spray in a sixth-grade classroom.
About 20 people, half of them students, were treated by emergency crews after the Friday incident at Desertaire Elementary School. Twenty-eight students were in the classroom at the time.
Ysleta Independent School District officials say they notified parents by telephone.
The students were moved to another classroom when classes resumed a few hours later.
The nature of the discipline facing the student responsible has not been disclosed.
