A Florida school teacher was arrested after she was caught on surveillance footage grabbing a kindergartener by the neck and throwing him to the ground, according to police.
Khadijah Tynnettta Muhammad, 54, assaulted the child, who was not one of her students, at Margate Elementary School in Broward County on Oct. 10 in front of other students and staff members, according to a police report obtained by WPLG.

Muhammad then marched over and grabbed the boy by his left wrist “in an aggressive matter,” police said.
“She continued to lift him off the ground by his arms, twist his arms and grabbed him by the back of his shirt while shoving him across the hallway,” an officer wrote in the arrest report.
“She ripped the jacket off his back and continuously grabbed the student by his arms, wrists, shirt and jacket until the altercation ended,” cops said.
“Towards the end of the video, which was partially blocked from the camera view, she appeared to grab him around his neck and slam him to the ground.”
The whole attack lasted about two minutes, according to police.
Muhammad was later arrested at her home in Lauderdale Lakes and charged with child abuse.
