2 preschool teachers charged with child cruelty captured on livestream, police say [View all]
Two preschool teachers in Georgia were arrested this week for alleged child cruelty that was captured on a classroom livestream, police said.
Zeina Alostwani, 40, and Soriana Briceno, former teachers at the Parker-Chase Preschool in Roswell, were arrested and charged Monday with first-degree child cruelty, according to statement from Roswell police.
The alleged physical contact between the teachers and students, ages 2 and 3, occurred on Thursday and was seen by a parent monitoring the livestream, police said.
That parent reported logging onto the camera system and seeing concerning physical contact between Alostwani and Briceno against several children in the classroom, police said.
The video, which is slightly more than one-minute long, was provided to NBC News on Wednesday by police.
It shows several children sitting around a circular rug. The footage appears to capture one teacher step on a childs hand for several seconds and then knee a second child in the back.
