On March 25, a 13-year-old teenager, Arthur Schuidtwas attacked with stones in the face inside the Technical School Support Foundation (Faetec) of Marechal Hermes, in the North Zone. The fight was recorded by other students. Second Danielle Schuidt, mother of the attacked student, the episode began during a volleyball game after lunch. The girl who attacked Arthur got hit with money and went to complain.
The video recorded by the other students shows this girl, who is Arthur’s classmate, taking a rock and hitting the boy in the face with it several times, causing him to bleed. The family says it was not the first attack and that Arthur is bullied at school.
After the confusion, the school called the boy’s parents, and the management took him to the UPA in Marechal Hermes. However, according to the mother, there was no pediatrician in the unit.

“All bullying complaints were investigated and those responsible were summoned, with conciliation between the parties involved.
