Police in Michigan are reporting that a grandmother assisted her granddaughter in beating up an elementary school kid. There are rumors that the grandmother broke into the elementary school covertly to fight the student in the restroom.
April 18 marked the woman’s arrest. They sent the grandmother to Genesee County Jail. The grandmother has not yet had her name made public because her arraignment is still pending.
The granddaughter and the grandmother arrived at McMonagle Elementary School on Thursday.
The two were buzzed into the school pretending to be part of a behavior meeting, according to Michael Veach, the chief of police in Mount Morris Township.
“On April 18, an unfortunate incident happened at McMonagle Elementary School involving a grandparent of one of the students who circumvented security protocols and get unauthorized access to the school,” stated Jamal Bransford, the public relations coordinator for Westwood Heights Schools, in a statement.
Veach claimed that the grandmother spotted a young girl with whom her granddaughter was having problems. According to reports, the duo trailed the girl into a restroom.
According to Veach, the granddaughter hit the girl while the grandmother restrained her.
The police dept. immediately investigated the alleged assault.
“It is important to underline that no other kids in the school were involved in this incident or harmed,” stated Bransford.
“Our first priority is the protection and safety of our students.” The administration of our school is working hard to put all the safeguards in place to stop similar security lapses in the future,” Bransford said. “We are working together with the Mt. Morris Township PD to put in place measures that will protect our children’s safety and stop similar occurrences from happening.”
