A teacher, surnamed Hou, went completely off the rails at the Taiping High School in Lingshan county, Guangxi province. At noon on the 28th of March, the teacher stripped naked and began to grope and grab a female student.





Images captured from a security camera show the bad teacher forcing himself on the girl.













Eventually other teachers and faculty members wrestled Hou away from the girl, and called the police and the man’s family.





The thirty year old man reportedly suffered from psychotic episodes in 2011, and had received treatment for mental illness. After two years of treatment it was believed that he had recovered.





The school decided to not have him teach classes, only allowing Hou to work in the school lab. They claim that since he was reinstated, he has been a perfectly fine staff member, with no incidents until now.





Hou has since been placed in a hospital to receive care, and the student has been in counseling. According to the official statement the girl did not suffer any physical injuries.









The story has captured the interest of Chinese social media, with many wondering if people who suffer from mental illness should be allowed to work with children.
