An Alabama elementary school teacher’s assistant facing child abuse charges has been fired after she allegedly tossed a 4-year-old boy by the leg and threw him six feet in an incident caught on video, according to court filings and Tuscaloosa County Schools.

Mandy Munoz, the teacher’s assistant at Lake View Elementary School in Tuscaloosa County, was charged with one count of child abuse on Friday, court records showed.

Munoz allegedly grabbed the 4-year-old boy by the arm and slung him to the other side of her before she grabbed his leg and “slung him 6 feet across the room,” according to the complaint filed against her in Tuscaloosa County District Court.

Munoz allegedly told the elementary school’s principal that she “just snapped from dealing with” the boy.

The incident was captured on school surveillance footage, the complaint stated.

A Tuscaloosa County Schools spokeswoman told the Tuscaloosa Thread that Munoz was fired before charges were filed against her.

“Mandy Munoz’s employment as a teacher’s assistant at Lake View Elementary was terminated on Monday, September 26,” said spokeswoman Terri Brewer. “The Tuscaloosa County School System has and will cooperate with any law enforcement investigation regarding this situation. Due to laws that protect the privacy of students, the Tuscaloosa County School System is unable to discuss publicly any details of the situation. The safety of our students is the highest priority of the Tuscaloosa County School System.”
