(Poughkeepsie, NY) — Counselors are on hand at Poughkeepsie High School in New York today after a fight between two teachers turned into a stabbing. City police say a veteran English teacher attacked another teacher with a screwdriver in the hallway yesterday morning. The school board held an emergency meeting last night to update concerned parents about the incident. Forty-year-old Ronette Ricketts allegedly stabbed 52-year-old Cynthia Glozier 16 times in the neck and head with the screwdriver. Glozier’s injuries are not considered life-threatening. Ricketts is in jail and is due in court today to face assault charges.
