Angelo Womack - mug shot 10/30/09 - Student attacked with hammer at Southeast Raleigh High

Raleigh, N.C. — An attempted murder charge has been filed against a 17-year-old accused of using a hammer to attack a female student inside a modular classroom at Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School last week, police said.

Angelo Womack was initially charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill.

The unidentified female student was treated at WakeMed and released.

Police have said that Womack and victim are both students at Southeast High, but did not have a personal relationship.

There should be some type of institution to put these kind of kids in so that they can get the help they needs. They obviously is not getting it at home from the parents. So it going to take an outsider to do it. Meanwhile the schools will be a lot safer when parents and students, of course the staff, know the person is no longer there at their school but locked up in an institution for a number of months getting the help he/she needs.

He had previous charges and should have received some help then. Wonder why he did not?

Some young people keep their anger bottled up and it don't take much of anything to set them off. So very sad.
