A startling video has surfaced showing a female student pursuing a fellow classmate inside a Detroit high school classroom, allegedly armed with a boxcutter, as a teacher tries to intervene.
According to reports from FOX 2 Detroit, this alarming incident took place at Denby High School, as confirmed by local law enforcement.
Authorities have yet to determine the cause of this confrontation, which has been widely shared on social media.
The footage starts with a student, sporting a blue beanie and headphones, gesturing towards another student who is wearing a face mask.
The incident, described as a terrifying chase, occurred at Denby High School in Detroit, as noted by police and reported by Fox 2.
As the masked student approaches, the other student backs away before turning and running through the classroom, knocking into desks as the two move through the room.
After the student in the blue beanie flees the classroom, the other student approaches the doorway, where a teacher attempts to stop her by using a chair to block the exit.
