Teen Charged For Allegedly Setting Classmate’s Hair On Fire During Lunch

A Virginia teen has been charged with lighting another student’s hair on fire during lunch in the classroom.

The incident took place at John Rolfe Middle School on Wednesday and the victim’s mother said the boy is currently suffering from second and third-degree burns.

According to NBC 12, Henrico Fire and Police responded to a call from the school around 12:30 p.m. about an individual who was suffering from non-life-threatening burns and he was later transported to a nearby hospital when fire officials arrived at the scene.

His mother says that the school administrators informed her that the school was on lockdown due to COVID-19 contact tracing and her son was having lunch in his math class. She added that while her son was throwing out his food, a female student approached him from behind with a lighter and lit his hair on fire.

She didn’t like the school’s response towards the incident and said they downplayed it in addition to not wanting to press charges against the student. 

“You can’t just brush this under the rug and think that it’s going to just go away, It’s not. My son is severely hurt, he’s suffering and it’s not fair to me it’s not fair to him so y’all just need to be held accountable,” the woman said.




The Henrico Fire Marshall’s Office charged the female teen with unlawful wounding.
