The teacher "just started beating him up," Janiqua Johnson told KHOU. "His behavior may have been bad but he didn't deserve that," Johnson said, referring to the teasing that preceded the alleged beating.
The school is looking into allegations that other teachers watched the beat-down without stepping in,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], according to a school spokesperson, and said that it will punish any teachers found to have done that.

HOUSTON (CBS/KHOU) When their teacher backed one of their classmates into a corner, students at a Houston-area charter school thought it was a joke - but it allegedly turned into a shocking and brutal beating that was caught on tape.
The Harris County Sheriff's Department is also investigating the incident,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although a spokesperson declined to comment further.
"It was horrifying," said Sue Jones, spokesperson for the school. "There's just no other word for that."
Janiqua Johnson and other witnesses told KHOU that four or five school employees were present in the classroom. The students claimed they felt intimidated by some teachers after the video became public.
