SALINA, Kan. (KSNW) -- A middle school teacher in Salina will not face criminal charges after a weight room incident that injured a student. On Sept. 6, a 13-year-old boy was bench pressing in the South Middle School weight room. According to the Salina Police Department, when the student finished the exercise, the teacher, a 39-year-old man, sat on him. Police say the student passed out shortly afterward and rolled off the bench, striking his head on a portion of the bench and getting a cut on his head. 3 suspects in Kansas women’s deaths face new charges USD 305 Salina Public Schools placed the teacher on administrative leave while the police department investigated. Police say they interviewed everyone present during the incident and then forwarded the case to the Salina Municipal Court. The court asked the Saline County Attorney's Office to review it. On Monday, police announced that the Saline County Attorney declined to prosecute the case because he could not establish criminal content since most of the witnesses thought the incident was playful in nature. KSN News contacted the school district to get the teacher's status. We have not heard back yet.
