MISSOURI CITY, Texas (KTRK) – A nonverbal child with autism in Texas was left lying on the floor for hours, crying in pain after a slip and fall at school.
Hermann Bensurto, Kyle’s father, is relieved to see his son is feeling better after the traumatic event three weeks ago.
Bensurto said his son was lying on the floor in a school classroom, crying in pain for two hours before he was given help.
The situation was even captured on video, showing Kyle crying out in pain while he lay on the floor, surrounded by two school employees.
On Nov. 5, the family got the call from Quail Valley Middle School that Kyle, who is described as nonverbal with severe autism, wouldn’t get up off the floor.
Kyle’s mom drove to the school, where she found her son still lying on the floor.
Bensurto doesn’t understand why his son was left on the floor in screaming pain for so long before getting help. »
