WTH? Giant Substitute Teacher Punches Las Vegas High School Student To The Ground, Then Slaps Him For Good Measure

A Las Vegas substitute teacher and a teen student unleashed a barrage of punches on each other after a classroom argument over a reported slur spilled out into a crowded hallway in front of other students.

Re’Kwon Smith, 27, is accused of brawling with the Valley High School student on Thursday when he asked the teen, who allegedly shouted out a racial slur, to leave the classroom, according to 8NewsNow.

The altercation turned physical when the student allegedly placed his hands on Smith.

Video obtained by the outlet captured both parties swinging at each other before Smith connected several times on the pupil, eventually knocking him down.

After knocking down the unidentified student, Smith stood over him seemingly yelling as the student balled up and cowered behind his hands.

Smith remained hovering over the student, landing several more punches until a campus safety monitor and other students helped their classmate off the ground, according to Fox 5 Vegas.

“You’re going to jail [slur],” the laughing student reportedly shouted as he was escorted away.

“I see a teacher fighting a student, I’m like ‘wow,'” Valley High School junior Andrew Acevez told KTNV. “And then the teacher is just standing over him, just slapping him, saying stuff to him, and I’m like, ‘wow, that’s crazy.'”

“We are aware of an altercation involving a staff member and a student,” Valley High School Principal Kimberly Perry-Carter wrote in a message to parents on Thursday.
