A special education teacher with a South Austin elementary school has been accused of biting a student, according to an affidavit from the Austin Police Department.

According to KUVE.COM Officers were dispatched to Cook Elementary School on March 6 where the assistant principal told responding officers that a 9-year-old student was bitten by Courtney Nikole Williams, a special education teacher.

When officers spoke with Williams, she said she took the student outside of a classroom because she was being disruptive.

William said she was standing behind the student when she said started to push her left arm up. According to Williams, the student's arm made contact with her nose and mouth area and at that particular moment she had her mouth open to tell the student to stop resisting and that's when she closed her mouth on the victim's arm.

A school counselor who spoke with police said she heard a scream and looked through the conference room door. She said she could hear the student screaming, "You bite me, you bite me."

Based on evidence, police have charged her with injury to a child.
