31 students pepper-sprayed at Queens school: NYPD

Dozens of students and staff were accidentally pepper-sprayed in the cafeteria of a Queens school Thursday morning, officials said.
The incident happened at PS 219 The Paul Klapper School at 144-39 Gravett Rd. in Flushing at around 10:45 a.m., according to the NYPD. Police said 31 students and nine adults were injured, and eight students and two adults were taken to the hospital for treatment.

As a witness, he clearly did not activate it on accident. He had sprayed it at students and tried throwing it out, and when caught was forced to find it in a trash can and furthermore sprayed more. The suspect even sprayed in a victim’s mouth reportedly.

[@AMIRFROMNYC]

Im one of the 7th graders here

[@AMIRFROMNYC]

And he did that on purpose

[@mrscrappz1063]

I was one of the adults that was taken to the hospital. Kid asked me if i wanted to try his "sour candy spray" and sprayed it directly into my mouth and into my sinuses. I'm new to the school, and was later told that the student has been a problem child for the past 3 years.

who spray it? kimi from class 631 it didn’t just spray it at the lunchroom he also sprayed it at music class which made everyone nonstop coughing, it started at the beginning of the day he got caught trying to throw it out before lunch but got caught by one of the security and they’re was another student that spray it at lunch which forced us to go to the gym, I believe it a different type of pepper spray it donest smell like a actual pepper spray like what i witness before. I believe the person that spray it at lunch is one of his friends.

[@il1sionx_]

[@acidicyt4711]

nono that is a lie i go to that school

[@xentea]

he did spray some people like 7th graders

[@Julysuho]

It was intentional but I don’t think he had any bad intentions, i believe he wasn’t thinking of the harmfulness of pepper spray and it was a impulsive behavior like a small prank.

[@AMIRFROMNYC]

yeah ima 7th grader here, and he’s lying about the sitting. he starts trouble a lot and lies

[@AMIRFROMNYC]

This is my school and I have to say this hasn’t happened ONCE

[@heyoinferno]

ikr I go there too

[@AMIRFROMNYC]

I’m 7th grade so that’s hard to deal with

[@erixsrevenge-_-]

Thank god I graduated from here last year or I would have been a victim

[@Julysuho]

You wouldn’t have, it was a new 6th grade student ( first year )

[@LawandOrder-fi5xk]

I guess we need stricter pepper spray laws and blame the National Pepper Spray Association and the pepper spray manufacturers.

[@il1sionx_]

it wasnt a accident. the boy sprayed it on purpous, i go here.

[@cecilialeon6588]

THEN...people ask why there is no teachers in schools!!!????? Ummmm

[@lucasortiz8446]

Yo this shit is crazy i also go to this school

[@xentea]

i know him pretty well he is definitely lying to the police

[@annaluvsuu]

is he facing any consequences?

[@Julysuho]

Most likely a 20 day suspension, he’s 11 so there’s many factors that gonna affect what consequences he gets. He is unlikely to go to juvie or jail.

[@Julysuho]

This is based on the school code for discipline

[@Julysuho]

I’m not sure but I think if you lie to the police, the consequences can be worser.

[@xentea]

@@Julysuho he said he only spray at lunch but he also sprayed it at music and he also lied how the can open by accidentally sitting on it

[@Julysuho]

GUYS CAN U STOP SAYING THE NAME OF KID? THIS IS THE INTERNET

[@il1sionx_]

hello, yall this is my school and i go here. ask any questions lol

[@annaluvsuu]

was he like straight up spraying it in front of everyone..?

[@ameliaschannel9532]

Did kimi get suspended or something? I heard rumors in my class that he went to jail but I don’t think that’s true.

[@Julysuho]

He won’t go to jail, he’s gonna get a max 20 day suspension and unlikely juvie

[@Julysuho]

[@il1sionx_]
