A mother's trip to Fivay High School to discuss an educational issue with school staff turned violent Thursday morning when she and her two teenage daughters attacked the school resource officer, according to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office.
The deputy eventually used his Taser to subdue one of the 16-year-old sisters and end the confrontation, the sheriff's office reported.
Cpl. Richard Bynum was not seriously injured in the fight, which happened about 9 a.m. near a conference room where the family had come for the meeting, the sheriff's office and the Pasco County School District reported.
That conference became heated and loud, and when Bynum came to investigate the commotion, one of the girls, who had run out into the hallway, shoved him the chest, said Doug Tobin, a spokesman for the Sheriff's office.
As Bynum tried to subdue her, the mother rushed into the hallway and grabbed the deputy's arms and shirt, Tobin said. The girl's sister, also a student at the school, punched Bynum several times and grabbed his shirt, Tobin said.
School staff members came to Bynum's aid, but the family continued to punch and grab him as he tried to hold back the first student who had attacked him, Tobin said.
