Parents beat up Brooklyn school safety agent who wouldn’t let them into elementary school over COVID vax status

Three parents enraged they couldn’t get into a Brooklyn elementary school without proof of COVID vaccination beat up a school safety agent Thursday, sending her to the hospital, according to union officials.

The parents, two fathers and a mother, were carrying cake and pizza when they showed up at PS 158 in East New York at about 2 p.m., said Gregory Floyd, the head of Teamsters Local 237, which represents the city’s school safety agents.

They were greeted by a lone school safety agent at the entrance, who asked to see proof of vaccination — but the parents barreled past her, telling her they had already called ahead and spoken to someone about it, he said.
