A special education teacher dragged a 6-year-old student into a classroom and abused him, leaving the child bruised, Texas police said.

Rashid Mohagheghian, a 42-year-old teacher at Bee Cave Elementary School in Austin, was seen on video hitting the child and calling him “the devil” on Oct. 22, according to court documents filed on Nov. 7.

Video showed the teacher shoving the child to the ground and throwing a table at him, according to court documents.

The child moved to avoid being hit by the piece of furniture, police said, but the teacher continued the abuse.

“You need to go to church, nobody likes you,” Mohagheghian told the 6-year-old, according to an affidavit.

The 6-year-old approached Mohagheghian, who was sitting in a chair by the classroom door, police said. The teacher grabbed the child’s chest, causing a “palm strike” bruise, the affidavit said.
