Milwaukee - A teacher's aide from Bay View High School was arrested by Milwaukee police Thursday morning after a classroom incident was caught on camera. Fox 6 NOW is reporting that they have a video of the 39-year-old teacher's aide pushing a 14-year-old student into a desk and holding him down on the floor while exclaiming expletives at the student during the course of the altercation.



"I was just watching it like 'this is unreal. I cannot believe this,'" Jacquan-Anthony Wilder, a student at Bay View High School told Fox 6.



Here is what public officials are coming out to say about the reported incident:



Tony Tagliavia, a spokesperson for Milwaukee Public Schools

"MPS finds this incident deeply disturbing. As soon as the school administration was notified of the incident, the Milwaukee Police Department was contacted and the staff member was removed from the classroom. We are cooperating with MPD. This staff member – who is a paraprofessional (teacher aide) – faces disciplinary action, including termination."



Congresswoman Gwen Moore

"As a parent and grandparent, I was deeply disturbed by a video that recently emerged of a student allegedly being assaulted by a teacher's aide at Bay View High School. Luckily, the student only sustained minor injuries, but that doesn't change the severity or magnitude of this incident. When Milwaukee parents send their sons and daughters to school, they reasonably expect that school to serve as a safe space for their children to learn and grow."
