The assault occurred at Langham Creek High School in Houston on Thursday when students from Aragon Middle School attacked assistant baseball coach and high school physics teacher Michael Shott during a baseball practice, according to reports.
Students and social media users say the coach was jumped because he told the students they couldn’t ride dirt bikes or ATVs on school grounds, KABB reported.
Following Thursday’s altercation, Cypress Fairbanks Independent School District confirmed that the school received threats of further violence via social media, prompting the deployment of security officers at the school.
Four students involved in the attack were taken into custody and will be disciplined according to the code of conduct, district officials said in a letter to parents.
