Police: Sub choked student at Fall River middle school
(AP) — A substitute teacher at a Fall River middle school has been fired and could face assault charges for allegedly choking a 12-year-old student.
The resource officer at Talbot Middle School says when she responded to a special needs classroom on March 8 she observed the boy on the floor with the adult male — described as a paraprofessional — straddling his chest with his hands around the child's throat.
