Patrice Henry, 31, has been arrested on a simple battery charge for allegedly punching a nine-year-old with a closed fist
A New Orleans mother is facing a battery charge after she was caught on cellphone video boarding a school bus and violently attacking a nine-year-old boy.
The victim’s mother, Ashley Batiste, claims that 31-year-old Patrice Henry physically assaulted her son after getting a call saying the boy had punched her own kindergarten-age child. The young boy had been left with a bloody nose.
Shortly before 5pm on February 4, a school bus was dropping off students from Dwight D Eisenhower Elementary School at their homes when police say Henry came on board the bus and asked, ‘Who hit my son?’
