A Bronx high school teacher has been arrested for inappropriately touching a 13-year-old schoolgirl and making suggestive comments to her in three separate incidents, police said.


Paul Anthony Tyrell, 38, allegedly targeted the same young man at J.H.S. 123 on Soundview beginning October 10 and running through Monday.

In one encounter, the teacher lifted the victim’s sweater and looked at her, while on another occasion he touched her buttocks, police said.


In a third incident, police charged Tyrell and told the girl in Spanish that “you have a great ass.”

Tyrell was arrested Wednesday afternoon and charged with forcible touching, acting in a manner detrimental to a child under 17 and sexual abuse, police said.

The city Department of Education did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
