An 18-year-old was charged Tuesday, accused of assaulting four staff members at a Pittsburgh school last month.

The incident occurred at Oliver Citywide Academy's satellite at Greenway in Crafton Heights on January 30.

School police say Qvawn Rembert-Leonard was talking on a phone about cocaine and fentanyl when a staff member approached him.

Rembert-Leonard allegedly threw the woman across the room, pushed a staff member, wrestled another to the ground and choked him and punched a fourth staffer.
