Schoolboy Gets Suspended After Saving Girl Having Asthma Attack


You’d think a student would be rewarded for getting an asthmatic classmate some help.
Not Anthony Ruelas, he was suspended last Tuesday.

The 15-year-old had rushed the girl to the medical room at Gateway Middle School, in Texas, after declaring ‘f—k that, we ain’t got time to wait for no email from the nurse.’

He had become impatient after his teacher decided to wait for written instructions on how to help the sickly student, according KCEN.

Anthony admitted he had broken the rules but said he’d do the exact same thing again.
‘I broke rules but, she needed help, like, she needed help,’ he said.

His mum thought he was a hero despite him getting into trouble.

‘I don’t think he should have used that language, but as far as getting suspended for walking out of class, he could have saved her life,’ Mandy Cortes added.

‘He may not follow instructions all the time, but he does have a great heart.’


The pupil Anthony helped later thanked him in a text and he was allowed to return to school today after the suspension.
