A 14-year-old boy in a private school tragically took his own life by jumping from the school building on Saturday. This happened after a teacher scolded him and allegedly slapped him in front of his classmates.
Police say the incident happened around 9:30 am. The boy was being warned by his Physical Education Teacher for supposedly moving the direction of a CCTV camera in the classroom. Feeling embarrassed and hurt, the boy asked to go to the washroom but went to the fourth floor instead and jumped off.
Afterwards, the boy was quickly taken to the hospital but was sadly declared dead. Some other students mentioned that the teacher had hit the boy.
In the boy’s book, a note was found where he said sorry to his mother for “ending his life.” Police have opened a case against the teacher for abetment to suicide, which means they are investigating whether the teacher’s actions played a part in the boy’s tragic decision.
