19-year-old Travis Chambers was booked this week after assaulting his teachers when they wouldn’t let him “talk to his people” on the phone while at Cora Howe High School. Mr. Seth Jason Powell explained that Chambers was using his phone without permission, and when he tried to take it away, he was punched in the face. According to Mr. Powell, Chambers lost control, and multiple teachers tried to restrain him, but not before he bit Mr. Powell in the left hand near his thumb, breaking the skin and scratching him on the arm. Police observed the injuries, and Chambers was placed into custody for assault.
Travis Matthews Chambers of Bell Rd in Antioch, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on September 8th, charged with assault. He was released on his own recognizance.
