Police: teen nailed to wall by students
Jason McKee , 01/23/2004
OLEY -- Four students, including three from Boyertown Area High School,
were arrested for allegedly nailing another student to a wall after an
argument over a football game, according to police.
All of the boys are students at the Berks Career and Technology Center's
east campus on Friedensburg Road in the township, police said. A fight
broke out at a building construction site being operated by the school,
according to Oley Police Chief David White.
"Apparently there was a disagreement over the Eagles game," White said.
The building site is a home being constructed by the students on Old
State Road. Students from the vo-tech school learn the construction
trade during the process. The home will be put on the market after
completion.
One of the boys, apparently the one who isn't an Eagles fan, was
wrestled into the basement by the other four. Using a hammer, they
nailed the victim's shirt and pants to exposed studs in the basement,
police said.
"They were laughing about it," White said of the four who were charged.
None of the boys involved was identified because of their ages. All but
one are under the age of 18, police said.
The victim was not injured in the Jan. 13 incident. Another student
helped release him from the wall.
White said the four defendants were charged with harassment and criminal
mischief, summary offenses.
Three of the students were also suspended from Boyertown Area High
School, police said. The fourth student is an 18-year-old senior at
Exeter High School.
Each citation carries a maximum fine of $300, plus court costs. They
were also ordered to pay restitution for the victim's damaged clothing,
according to police.
"I think they learned a lesson," White said.
