Two 16-year-old students repeatedly punched a dean in the face at Curtis HS in St. George — and that was after he told them they were being suspended, authorities said.
Timothy Young and Ellius Rodriguez ganged up on Christopher Alena, who doubles as the school’s wrestling coach, at about noon on Tuesday in his office, according to court papers.
They were charged with assault and harassment, said a spokesman for DA Daniel Donovan.

Four armed men described as in their 20s robbed an Arrochar apartment of $1,000 and three TVs — and made their getaway in a car belonging to one of the residents.
The quartet allegedly barged into the home at 67 Olympia Blvd. at about 1 a.m. Monday, forced two residents to lie down on the floor and ransacked the place.
They then stole the 2009 Nissan Maxima, whose New York license plate number was EBZ 9816.

Two people are charged with assault after stiffing a livery-cab driver in Laconia and beating him up when he protested, cops said.
Vashti Gregg, 27, Abigail Gregg, 18, and an unidentified man hailed the cab in Hamilton Heights last Friday and asked to be driven to Gun Hill Road in The Bronx, sources said.
Once there, the unidentified passenger jumped out and took off. But the driver trapped the remaining two in the vehicle by hitting the gas, according to Fernando Mateo, head of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers.
The Greggs punched and kicked the cabby as he ran three red lights — attracting the attention of an undercover cop, who pulled the car over and arrested the violent freeloaders at about 6:15 p.m.
Vashti and Abigail Gregg were charged with assault.

The gun was a toy, but the surveillance camera was real — and so are the charges against two hapless thugs who knocked off a Woodhaven gas station, authorities said.
Raul Rivera, 30, and Marquise Powell, 23, roared into the Gulf station on Atlantic Avenue near Eldert Lane at about 10 p.m. on Nov. 21 and threatened a cashier with the phony firearm, according to court papers.
They grabbed cash out of the register and fled, leaving behind the telltale footage.
The two were busted on Nov. 30, and Powell allegedly confessed. Both were charged with robbery and burglary, said a spokeswoman for District Attorney Richard Brown.

The FBI is offering a reward for help in capturing a man who fired a shot in a busy Long Island City bank during a failed heist.
The suspect, sporting a black hat, coat and gloves and a dark-gray scarf, entered the HSBC branch at 2215 43rd Ave. at about 8:45 a.m. Wednesday, and then pointed a silver revolver through a teller’s window, according to authorities.
After demanding cash, he fired a single shot into the ceiling, sending everyone diving for cover, then fled, empty-handed, in a black Lincoln Town Car that had been waiting a block away, the FBI said.
The suspect, described as about 35 years old, 5-foot-7 and 185 pounds, is suspected of also robbing the Capital One Bank at 185 Broadway in Manhattan on Oct. 18.
Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI at (212) 384-1000.

A 22-year-old man was charged with attempted murder after ending an argument by shooting his foe in the neck, shoulder, arm and ankle outside the Queensbridge Houses, authorities said.
Keith Ortiz had stalked off after the initial fight on 12th Street near 40th Avenue in Queensbridge at about 4 p.m. on May 13, according to the spokeswoman for the Queens district attorney.
But he returned and started blasting away, apparently unaware that the whole thing was being caught on surveillance video, according to authorities. Police said they recovered 10 shell casings at the scene.
Ortiz, arrested on Nov. 29, was also charged with assault and criminal possession of a weapon, according to the Queens DA. The victim survived.
