Aquavis Hickman, a 17-year-old student at Parkland High School in North Carolina, was indicted on the assault and kidnapping charges last week, Forsyth County District Attorneys said. He is being charged as an adult in the two separate attacks, one of which was filmed. In the first, un-filmed incident, he allegedly attacked a male teacher at the school on February, and in their statement, prosecutors said he did not act alone. Then, last month, officials claimed the teen walked up to a female teacher and smacked her twice, with footage of the alleged attack later circulating on social media. It has yet to be released by cops.

The National Park Service is starting a'rehabilitation' process for a Pennsylvania park that prohibits the demolition of a statue of William Penn and the inclusion of Native American tribes. On Friday, the Deb Haaland-led parks service responded to the call for comment on the updates to Welcome Park on their website and in a post on X. Penn, the originator of Pennsylvania in 1681, was known for his amicable relations with the Native tribes of the area. The park was established 300 years ago. However, many on social media have already given more than two cents about the decision.
