Bavaria: "Punishment" allegations: teachers temporarily suspended

Karlsfeld (dpa / lby) - A teacher in the district of Dachau is said to have attacked students. The man is said to have "physically chastised and possibly touched children inappropriately," police said in a statement on Friday. However, a spokesman emphasized: "After further investigations, we are currently assuming that it is more likely to be a lower-threshold act." No one was beaten or injured.

The incident is said to have happened in a class of mostly eleven-year-olds on May 18 at the school in Karlsfeld. The teacher was temporarily released from his duties, it said.
