Florida police have arrested a man for assaulting a high school student who approached him over not complying with the local school district's mask mandate, CBS Miami reported.
Fort Lauderdale police arrested Dan Bauman after he pushed the student in the shoulder then twisted her arm aggressively, CBS Miami reported, citing a police report.
Bauman is the father of a 10th grade student who had showed up to the school and was turned away four times at the start of the school year there for not complying with the school district's mask requirement. He and his daughter had been turned away by administration officials for not wearing face coverings.
Bauman was charged with aggravated child abuse, CBS Miami reported.
The incident comes as Florida school districts attempt to impose mask mandates for students and administration officials despite an executive order by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) preventing such mandates by allowing parents to opt their children out of any such requirements.

Aggravated Child Abuse is a first degree felony in Florida, carrying up to a 30 year sentence. I hope the DA remains tough and doesn't allow him to plead to a lesser crime. About five years in prison should get the man's attention.
