A staff member has been removed from Theodore Roosevelt High School in Albany Park following a physical altercation with a student, according to Chicago Public Schools.

Video footage of the incident, published by WGN, shows a staff member and a student holding onto one another in a struggle. The staff member then appears to hold the student by the neck and shove him to the ground, pushing his face into the floor with the palm of his hand as other students yell in shock and confusion.
