Students, Parents Support Classmate At East High School

By Suzanne McCarroll
DENVER (CBS4)– ElhadjI Samba Dioum is in serious trouble after his arrest in connection with an incident that closed school at East High School in Denver last Thursday.
Dioum, 19, faces charges of theft, attempted aggravated robbery and menacing. Police say he used a BB gun to threaten a student.
But some students and parents want you to know the Samba they know and respect; one they say would never intentionally commit a crime.
