ALBANY, N.Y. — A yank on a child’s underwear has a teacher in big trouble. Â
Albany police have charged 41-year-old Mark Holley with endangering the welfare of a child for giving a student a wedgie. Holley’s a teacher at New Covenant Charter School in Albany. Â
Police said that during summer school last year, while a 10-year-old New Covenant student was in the bathroom, Holley grabbed the child’s underwear and pulled it up. Â
The student’s mother reported the incident to the school, but police were not notified until January. The arrest came after an investigation where police interviewed both the child and the teacher.
