Assault: East Bagley Road
A 13-year-old boy staying at OhioGuidestone, 202 East Bagley, faces possible criminal charges after she punched a pregnant worker several times in the stomach at the behavioral health treatment center.
The incident occurred at about 3:30 p.m. April 5. The boy had demanded that staff allow him to leave a locked portion of the treatment center. When the staff said no, the boy threw a chair and trashcan at windows.
The worker, who was five-months pregnant, and a coworker placed the boy in restraints. After about 15 minutes, he calmed down, so the restraints were removed. Then the boy began raging again, and this time the coworker wasn’t available to assist.
