Child advocates discuss case involving Union County teacher charged with assaulting student

An elementary school teacher is accused of assaulting a student, the Union County Sheriff's Office said on Tuesday.

Noah Bradley, 26, was charged with assault on a child under 12 in Union County court. Bradley, a teacher at Western Union Elementary School, is accused of aggressively grabbing a student's arm, leaving visible bruises. Court records say the child is 6 years old.

As the criminal process moves forward, child advocates say cases involving alleged abuse by educators can be especially difficult for young children to process and report.
