The incident occurred at Matanzas High School in Palm Coast, Florida - some 90 miles north of Orlando - when two school resource officers responded to a disturbance in a hallway of the high school at approximately 1 p.m. on Monday afternoon, according to a statement released from Flagler County Sheriff's Office.
"During the fight, a female student pushed so they could attack another student," authorities said in their statement describing the chaotic situation. "At the same time, was working to control the situation and observed a male student run into the altercation. Deputy Landi then observed the student charging at a school staff member while swinging his arms, ultimately punching the staff member in the shoulder ...
"The lack of respect demonstrated by these students is simply shameful," said Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly. "But actions have consequences. Parents, be the Sheriff in your home and teach your kids the importance of respecting teachers, staff, and deputies. Teach them how to handle disagreements and that fighting only leads to more violence. We have a zero-tolerance policy for violence at schools, and you will be arrested.
