SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) – A Siouxland teacher was arrested in connection to an incident where a man had to get facial surgery following an assault.
Marc Curry, who is a physical education teacher at Leeds Elementary School, was booked into the Woodbury County Jail on September 22 on a felony assault charge with a bond of $10,000.
Court documents alleged Curry, 50, was looking for the ex-husband of his fiancee in Sioux City on July 30. He went to the man’s home, but he wasn’t there.
The documents said Curry told the man’s mother that he better “watch his back,” stating people wanted to hurt him because of some texts he sent. Curry left the home and went to Marty’s Tap to find the victim. He was there, and Curry blocked him from leaving with his vehicle.
