"The student was not able to free themselves and the other student involved was also not able to help them. This student left the bathroom to seek help from staff and reported the incident to administrators," Burke continued. "Administrators responded and were able to assist, but staff called 911 for additional precautionary medical support. Due to privacy reasons, I am not able to share any additional details with you." 

Charles County Public Schools Superintendent Maria Navarro then announced Monday that "Disciplinary consequences following the Charles County Public Schools Code of Student Conduct are being imposed due to the serious nature of this incident."

"As of today, we have gathered additional statements from staff and students and completed a thorough review of school camera footage. Based on our investigation so far, we have no reason to believe this was race-related or there was any intent for anyone to be hurt," she said.
