A father whose daughter was graduating from high school is facing charges after reportedly crashing the ceremony when her name was called and shoving the Black superintendent to stop him from shaking hands with the girl.

On May 31, Baraboo High School in Baraboo, Wisconsin, held its graduation ceremony for the class of 2024. Several staff members, including the school superintendent, were on stage shaking hands with the new graduates when they walked across the stage.

In the middle of the ceremony, a 49-year-old man climbed on stage before his daughter shook hands with the superintendent. He reportedly pushed him away from the girl and said the man “was not going to touch [his] ‘F**king’ child.” The superintendent reportedly told the man to get away from him, and the audience reacted unfavorably to the unexpected event.
