During the incident, the student reportedly swung at the officer before being wrestled to the floor and placed in handcuffs. Additional police units were called to the scene.

The student was released to the custody of his father. He has been charged with assault on a police officer and disorderly conduct.

As for what plans the school will take regarding the incident, Greenville Middle School Principal Rhonda Schaar said she was not at liberty to speak about discipline regarding a specific student.
