A New Jersey mother and grandmother have been arrested on charges they
attacked two fourth-grade boys they claim were bullying a 9-year-old
girl.
Twenty-eight-year-old Rebecca Sardoni, of Toms River, and her mother,
51-year-old Stephanie Sardoni, of Beachwood, were arrested Friday.
Toms River police tell The Asbury Park Press (http://on.app.com/QArkQn)
that witnesses say the women boarded a school bus Friday bound for East
Dover Elementary School and sought out boys they claimed had been
harassing Rebecca Sardoni's daughter.
Police say Rebecca Sardoni cursed at and slapped two boys while her mother screamed at them.
Rebecca Sardoni denies she hit or touched anyone. She tells the
newspaper she took matters into her own hands because school officials
ignored her complaints.
School officials couldn't be reached for comment Sunday.
