GROVETOWN, GA (WRDW/WAGT) -- A Grovetown High School student was arrested and charged after the Columbia County Sheriff's Office says the teacher was attempting to calm the student down after a fight.

According to the incident report, deputies were called to the school on Tuesday after an incident involving a male student and 18-year-old Roshae McCraw.

That fight, the incident report said, stemmed from an incident involving the male student and a female student who was McCraw's friend.

The report said the male student put his hands on the female student's hips and pushed his pelvis into her. He continued to keep his hands on the girl until she finally got away from him, the report said.

It was at that point, the report said, the girl told McCraw about the incident and McCraw "got upset by what her friend just told her."

After class, according to the report, McCraw found the male student, punched his arm, and pushed him up against a wall before a teacher managed to grab McCraw to stop her from hitting the male again.

McCraw, the report said, walked away from the situation but was "still in a rage" before she was stopped by another teacher, who attempted to calm her down.

The report then says McCraw punched that teacher in the face three times and attempted to knee him before she was pinned against a locker.

McCraw stands charged with battery on a school teacher or other school personnel.
