A special-needs student in North Carolina is claiming that one of his teachers physically abused him, sitting on the student and choking him in an attack that left the alleged victim bruised and bleeding around his neck and on his face. The teacher later told the boy’s mother that he had a “tussle” with her son, the family said in a recent interview.

Student Chris Mason and his parents, Rodney Rothoff and Queen Miller, spoke with Charlotte NBC affiliate WCNC about the incident they say took place last month at Jay M. Robinson High School in Cabarrus County, about 20 miles northeast of Charlotte.
