Fort Worth middle school student cut boy across the arm during class, district says
A boy in an all-male sixth-grade class at Hadley Middle School cut another student across the arm on Thursday morning, according to Fort Worth police and the Fort Worth school district.
The victim went to the school nurse’s station with a minor injury before his mother picked him up, according to Clint Bond, a Fort Worth school district spokesperson. The attacker was taken to the front office and then to the Scott D. Moore Juvenile Justice Center, he said.
It appears the two students didn’t know each other, Bond said. “It was an unprovoked attack as far as we can tell,” he told the Star-Telegram over the phone.
Police were dispatched around 10:30 a.m. Thursday to the school in the 2800 block of Patino Road, according to Officer Tracy Carter, a police spokesman. Carter didn’t immediately respond to a question about what charges, if any, the juvenile attacker is facing.
