Crime Over Spilled Milk of the Day: A sixth grader at Ben Franklin Middle School in Valparaiso, Indiana was arrested after spilling his milk in the school cafeteria and refusing to clean it up.

Police reports : a 12-year-old boy became “belligerent” after being ordered by a school staffer to clean up the spill, telling the employee “this is stupid, you’re retarded.” A school resource officer stepped in and again asked the student to mop up the mess, to which the kid replied “this is crap, I’m not doing it.”

As he attempted to leave the cafeteria, the officer told the student to sit and await further instructions. The boy then became “increasingly agitated,” prompting the officer to grab his arm and endeavor to “perform an education escort.” The boy managed to free himself from the hold and proceeded to run around the cafeteria and out into a hallway when he was tackled by the officer and handcuffed.

After a police report was filed the boy was released into his father’s custody and his case has been submitted to the Juvenile Probation office for review.
