FLINT, Mich. (KTTV) - WARNING: The video shown above is graphic and may be disturbing.
A teacher was briefly knocked out after one of the students threw a chair in class.
The viral video, shared by 810newsmediagroup, showed a chaotic scene in a Michigan classroom where multiple students were shouting at each other on top of their lungs.
