Murphy School in Montville sought a police report.Police say a cafeteria surveillance camera showed Horsley using an open palm to push the child's head back until he fell last March.The child told police his head hurt for a few days.Horsley, fired after the encounter, declined comment Tuesday. She remains free on bond and is due back in court Feb. 21.
