A student at Pennbrook Middle School in North Wales, Pennsylvania, was left hospitalized after being attacked by a trans-identified male student with a Stanley Cup on Wednesday afternoon.
Surveillance video from the school cafeteria showed a seventh-grade girl walking when the accused student approached her and began beating her in the head with a Stanely cup, according to 6ABC, a local news network. Witnesses to the events said the girl's head was beaten until she bled.
According to Reduxx, the student in question is a trans-identified male who went by the name "Melanie" and had recently been transferred to the school.
The aftermath of the incident saw over 50 concerned people attend a North Penn School District meeting Thursday night, seeking answers and expressing their worries about the safety of students at the school.
