STANWOOD, Wash. — The teen who was hit, Connor Reynolds, tells a different story. Reynolds said the woman, later identified by police as Elyssa Buhl, was upset at a group of 8th graders for swearing and acted aggressively toward them. Reynolds, who is in the 9th grade, said he and his friends intervened.
“She took a kid’s frappe and threw it on the ground,” Reynolds said. “She started using awful language in front of her kid which is very ironic to me.”
Reynolds called police after he was hit. The police report said there is likely enough evidence for Reynolds and his family to press charges. Reynolds said he is still considering the possibility.
There is a lively discussion about who was right and who was wrong in this situation on the KIRO 7 Facebook Page.
