A public school teacher in Georgia has been placed on administrative leave after allegedly threatening a student late last month, officials said.
A video taken from the classroom of the Rockdale Career Academy in Conyers shows the teacher telling the student not to "screw" with him, or he will "get in big-a-- trouble."
"Don't smile at me, man, OK? That's how people like you get shot," the teacher, who is white, told the student, who is black. "I got a bet. I bet by the time you're 21, somebody's gonna put a bullet right through your head. And it might be me -- the one that does it."
Students in the classroom are heard expressing shock at the teacher's statements.
The mother of the student that the teacher was allegedly speaking to posted the video to Facebook on Friday, saying that she was "outraged" that the incident occurred.
