Parents Allege School Employee Hits Nonverbal 3-Year-Old Boy

A Dayton Public Schools employee was fired after being caught on video hitting a nonverbal 3-year-old student with autism, causing him to fall to the ground. The parents of the child are frustrated by the incident and are speaking out to prevent similar incidents from happening to other children. The school district took immediate action to investigate and remove the employee, stating that the actions seen in the video are contrary to employee training and not tolerated. The parents, however, are disappointed with the district's lack of transparency and delay in sharing the video with them. Dayton police have not yet announced potential charges against the employee.
