A video showcasing an attack on a Florida high school employee has led to the arrest of a 17 year-old student. The attack was initiated after the employee took the students’ Nintendo Switch device away, according to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office.

The Matanzas High School student has been charged with felony aggravated battery with bodily harm, the sheriff’s office said in a press release. 

Following the Palm Coast incident on February 21st, the student was taken into custody and brought to the  Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility. He was later turned over to the  state Department of Juvenile Justice, for “becoming violent” while speaking to them after the incident.

according to the news release.

The arrest report describes the teens motives for attack stating that he would “beat her up” every time she took away his game. Joan Naydich has been identified as the employee that underwent the attack, confirmed by her husband Alexander Naydich. 

Details of the attack can be deciphered from a surveillance video of the student. The sheriff’s office has released a description of the student saying he stands 6 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs around 270 pounds. He runs toward Naydich and knocks her to the ground. The employee is seen lying motionless as the student punches and kicks her repeatedly before bystanders pull him off of her. Naydich was taken to an area hospital for treatment.

Sheriff  Rick Staly said in the release, “The actions of this student are absolutely horrendous and completely uncalled-for. We hope the victim will be able to recover, both mentally and physically, from this incident. Thankfully, students and staff members came to the victim’s aid before the [school resource deputies] could arrive. Our schools should be a safe place – for both employees and students.”

Flagler County Schools on Saturday reported that out of respect for their employee’s privacy, they are withholding commentary on her medical condition at this time.

Ice Spice’s High School Volleyball Photo Surfaces Online

by

Now that Ice Spice has obviously made a name for herself, many are wondering about the New Yorkers’ humble beginnings. We recently learned that her dream before rapping fell into her life was to pursue a career in acting. Additionally, she’s revealed some of her biggest rap influences, and how she crafted her stage name.

The 23-year-old can obviously tell us all about her past. Still, we all know a picture is worth a thousand words. Thankfully, internet sleuths have been able to unearth photos from Spice’s time in high school, including her yearbook photo. When that began circulating social media some weeks ago, users were quick to point out the resemblance between the rising artist and Lauren London.

Of course, not everyone agreed. However, many couldn’t deny that seeing the “Bikini Bottom” hitmaker sporting straight black hair rather than her usual tight red curls made them look incredibly alike. On her “In Ha Mood” single, Spice even seemingly referenced the comparisons, rapping, “Pretty face like Lauren and a big ass butt.”

On Tuesday (February 14), yet another throwback photo of the Bronx native appeared online. This one proves that she previously spent some time dabbling in athletics. The slightly blurry image sees a much younger Isis Gaston sporting her usual curly hair. She offers the camera a closed-mouth smile while seemingly kneeling in her high school volleyball uniform.

During her time on the team, Spice proudly repped number four. According to a TikTok posted earlier this year, she went on to play for Purchase College Athletics Women’s Volleyball after graduating. Thanks to a scholarship, she was also allegedly able to study Biology while playing the sport she loves.

Nia Long Admits To Dating 30-Year-Old Man During High School In Resurfaced Interview: Watch

by

In the modern dating world, age-gap relationships have proven to be increasingly popular. While some, such as Cher and AE Edwards, are okay with having decades separating them from their partners, others like to keep it to a span of just a few years. Many of these unions often earn the couples criticism. Still, none are more dangerous than those taking place between an underage girl and a grown man. In a resurfaced clip, Nia Long admits to finding herself in a situation like this during high school.

Her most recent ex, Ime Udoka, is actually seven years her junior. However, before she was an adult herself, the New York native seems to have acquired a taste for older men. “I wasn’t a girl that ever went to prom,” she confessed in an interview that took place six years ago.

“Like, my boyfriend was 30 when I was in high school! I know, my mother was crazy. I mean that in a good way, like she was an artist,” Long told the laughing audience. “She was like, ‘Well if that’s who you love, baby!’ And he was so good to me and kind,” the mother of two added, pausing for a fit of laughter herself.

According to the 52-year-old, her much-older boyfriend approached her and made his interest known “the right way.” He firstly went to the Friday actresses’ mom, telling the woman that he was in love with Nia. “He said, ‘I love your daughter and I want to date your daughter,’ and he asked permission,” she recalled. Immediately, after sharing the memory, Long noticed a woman in the audience obviously expressing her emotions.

“Look at you, you’re like ‘That ain’t happening with my baby,’” she teased the patron while pointing at them. “But you know what he taught me?” the Brooklyn native asked the crowd. “‘Cuz he owned a hair salon. He taught me how to do my own hair and makeup,” she finished, leaving listeners in stitches over the wildness of the whole relationship.

Since her sudden split from Ime Udoka, Long’s love life has certainly spent its share of time in the public eye. For the most part, she seems to be having fun and snapping photos with various celebrity bachelors out there, though she’s also been keeping busy with work. Her latest project, Netflix’s You People, premiered on the streaming service recently, much to fan’s pleasure.

In the weeks since then, the starlet has been vocal about her acting career, and the casting decisions she feels left out of. Specifically, Nia named Zoë Saldaña in Avatar as a role she would have been interested in bringing to life. Read what else she had to say here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Wiz Khalifa Labels Himself & Snoop Dogg The New Cheech & Chong 

by

Wiz Khalifa hasn’t outsmoked Snoop Dogg yet but the two are undoubtedly the most prolific stoners of our time. Snoop took Wiz under his wing after Wiz took off in the rap game. Since then, they’ve developed a strong bond with one another that they stamped with the success of “Young, Wild & Free” ft. Bruno Mars.

The song became the lead single from the soundtrack of the movie, Mac & Devin Go To High School. In the same way that Method Man and Redman delivered an iconic stoner film with How High, Mac & Dev served a similar purpose in Snoop and Wiz’s career. The film developed a strong cult following, despite the negative reviews.

The movie dropped over 10 years ago but the two are coming through with a sequel. Snoop announced a sequel to the film, titled High School Reunion, was coming this summer. The rapper shared photos of himself and Wiz smoking out in the studio when he shared the news. Then, Wiz the same photos and called himself an iteration of the iconic stoner duo, Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong. “We the new Cheech and Chong,” he captioned the post with the hashtag #HighSchoolReunion.

There’s little information regarding the upcoming sequel to Mac & Devin Go To High School. However, Wiz and Snoop have been plotting on its release for nearly a decade at this point. Snoop said in a 2014 interview that production companies wanted him and Wiz to produce a sequel. At the time, he also said that he and Wiz would deliver an accompanying soundtrack to the film, as well. However, it appears that the film was dropped shortly after only to be picked up, once again, over a decade after Mac & Devin Go To High School initially dropped. 

Besides the new film, Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg have been tied to a Smoker’s Olympics. Last year, Styles P issued a challenge to all of hip-hop’s most notable smokers in hip-hop to see who can stand the longest in a smoke out. Though many accepted the challenge, it hasn’t gone down yet. Hopefully, this comes to fruition this year, as well.
