The Lanphier High School teacher who was arrested after an altercation with a student has reportedly been placed on paid leave while the investigation of the incident continues.

 

While District 186 has declined to publicly comment on Adrian Akers’ status with the district, Newschannel 20 reports that Akers was placed on paid leave. A police report indicates that a student struck Akers several times before Akers picked up the student and then threw him to the ground.

 

Both Akers and the juvenile were initially charged with aggravated battery, but it’s unclear if prosecutors will pursue the charges against either of them.
