Teen charged with assault after incident caught on camera

A 15-year-old boy who was allegedly seen by a television crew hitting another high school student — just as the victim was to be interviewed about bullying — has been charged with assault, according to the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office.

Preston Deener, a 15-year-old Brunswick High School sophomore, was about to be interviewed by the crew about bullying on Monday when three other students chased him across a street, and one teen struck him in the head, according to media reports. Part of the incident was caught on tape.
