Police received a 911 call from a man who said he was involved in a crash with another driver who was attacking him.

The man was able to break free from Scott’s attack and get help from witnesses in the area. According to police and court filings, Scott then attacked the man in the Durango after the crash and choked him to “expel the demons from inside” until he started to lose consciousness. [say that Scott admitted to crashing](https://www.azfamily.com/2022/12/17/man-causes-crash-attacks-driver-goodyear-because-devil-took-over-him-police-say/) his Dodge Charger into the Dodge Durango because “the devil took over his body” and he “stopped listening to God.”

In a 911 call, a school administrator asked police to find Nathan and also to come to the school “because a staff member will probably press charges.” Earlier this year, ISBE and the state attorney general’s office told school districts across the state to use social workers, mental health professionals and counselors — not police — to create a “positive and safe school climate.” “We had to pick up our 10-year-old at the police station,” Lena said. “I was one that never really cared to watch kids get escorted out in handcuffs,” said Cropp, who returned to the school full time in late November. His “disruptive” behavior earlier in the day — he had knocked on doors and bounced a ball in the hallway — had led to a warning: “One more thing” and he would be arrested, a school report said. In one case, the crisis team made a “human wall” around a 14-year-old student who was wandering in the classroom, swearing and being disruptive. In a later interview, after learning more about the incident, Fair said staff considered the student aggressive and said, “I guess they did what they thought was right.” They put him in the back seat of a squad car, drove him to the police station, read him his rights and booked him. These young people avoid going to juvenile court, but the “probation adjustment” process also requires them to admit guilt and denies them a public defender. The student had missed the bus and called police for help, according to a police report and 911 call. The school once called police after a student was told he couldn’t use the restroom because he “had done nothing all morning,” records show. Officers typically handcuff students and take them to the police station, where they are fingerprinted, photographed and placed in a holding room.
