A student and a security guard were caught on camera fighting at an unidentified high school. The video has sparked heated debate, and the male guard is being condemned for repeatedly punching a female student. The video, reposted on WorldStarHipHop on Wednesday, shows the security guard trying to defuse an altercation that quickly escalated into a fistfight.
As he repeatedly tells the student to stop, the guard can be seen in the video raising his hands and indicating that she should back off. Refusing to comply, she hits him repeatedly and strikes him in the face. In response, the guard lunges toward her and snatches her before throwing punches at her. Rowdy students surrounding them erupt with disbelief at the security’s retaliation.
The scuffle quickly turns into a fight. The student is repeatedly struck by the security guard until they are both on the ground. A number of students stormed in, yanking the two apart and putting an end to the fight.
According to additional clips and circulating details, the situation began when the guard stepped in to break up a fight between the female student and another classmate. His attempt to block her from reaching the other girl apparently triggered the student’s attack on him.
The video has been garnering mixed responses, with many calling for repercussions for the security. According to the details accompanying the video, many denounced his use of force and demanded that he be fired immediately. They contend that an adult in his role should never respond to a pupil in this way. Others, however, have come to his defence, noting that he was assaulted first and may have reacted out of instinct.
As of now, no official information has been released regarding the name of the school or whether disciplinary action will be taken, according to the post.
