The incident occurred Monday morning as the parent, who was not identified, was “directed to report to the office” when they entered the Fike High in Wilson, North Carolina, Principal Ross Renfrow, said in a statement sent to families viewed by USA TODAY.
However, the parent “did not report to the office and instead assaulted a student in the hallway based on a situation that happened outside of school.” The reason behind the attack was not immediately known.
Renfrow said he and other staff members intervened immediately, “diffused the situation, and escorted the parent out of the building.” Renfrow said the school is “working in collaboration with the sheriff’s office and charges have been filed,” adding the parent will no longer be allowed on campus.
While the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to USA TODAY’s request for an update on the incident, local news outlets WNCN and The Wilson Times reported the parent, identified as Quinton Earl Lofton, was charged with felony assault by strangulation and disorderly conduct for entering the school Monday morning and assaulting a “student over an isolated incident that had occurred outside of school.” The accused was also placed in the Wilson County Detention Center under a $7,500 secured bond, as per The Wilson Times, but bonded out within a couple of hours.” – usatoday.com | Posted by Thrillz
