A grandmother has been arrested for allegedly helping her granddaughter beat up another student in her elementary school bathroom.
The incident occurred on April 18 at the McMonagle Elementary School in Mt. Morris Township.
The woman’s name has not yet been released because she is still pending arraignment.
Mt. Morris Township Police Chief Michael Veach told local station WNEM that the grandmother and child had been called into the school for a behavioral meeting.
The report explains:
Veach said the grandmother saw another girl her granddaughter was having trouble with, so she and her granddaughter followed her into a bathroom.
The grandmother then held down the girl while her granddaughter punched her, Veach said.
The grandmother is currently detained at the Genesee County Jail.
Westwood Heights Schools Public Relations and Marketing Coordinator Jamal Bransford released the following statement about the incident:
