New York High School Student Allegedly Pours Acid on Classmate's Head
Published November 17, 2014
A Brooklyn, N.Y., teen admitted to police that she poured acid on a classmate’s head in hopes to burn the victim’s eyes out, reported the New York Post.
Zhanna Smsarian, 16, allegedly sat behind the victim, Albina Eshimbaeva, 15, in chemistry class at Fort Hamilton High School on Wednesday and allegedly poured a bottle of diluted hydrochloric acid over Eshimbaeva’s head, the Post reported. Classmates said the girls have a history of bad blood.
Once poured, the acid dripped down the girl’s head and into her eyes. But the quick-thinking teacher doused the girl’s eyes with water and rushed her to Staten Island Hospital’s burn unit, where staffers said the girl would have been blind if not for the teacher’s reaction.
Smsarian was arraigned in Brooklyn Criminal Court, and charged with attempted assault and other offenses. Bail was set at $7,500 bond and an order of protection was issued, reported the Post.
