A Wisconsin police officer working as a substitute English teacher in Minnesota has reportedly been placed on administrative leave by his department and barred from school grounds after the principal said he “reenacted the prone restraint that resulted in the murder of George Floyd” by placing his knee on the neck of a student in class.
Local CBS affiliate WCCO reported that incident took place Monday at Woodbury High School in front of sophomores and seniors. Woodbury is a suburb of St. Paul and not far from Minneapolis, the city that employed Derek Chauvin as a police officer before he was arrested and convicted of murdering Floyd, 46, on the evening of May 25, 2020.
