Attorney Todd Hollis speaks to the press about his client, Queshawn Wade, a 14-year-old student at Woodland Hills High School, on Wednesday, April 5, 2017. Wade was involved in an altercation with a school resource officer on Monday.

Woodland Hills Schools Superintendent Alan Johnson said he's disappointed by a Facebook post in which Pittsburgh attorney Todd Hollis challenged Johnson, a Churchill police officer and a high school principal to a boxing match.

The post said, "CHALLENGE: Kevin Murray. Stephen Shaulis or Alan Johnson. If any one of you want to do a charity grudge BOXING match. Get in touch. I'm tired of watching you BEAT up on kids. Please Share, share and share again. #letsdoit #fightingforyouiswhatido #bullys."

Murray is the principal at Woodland Hills High School and Shaulis is a police officer, who was assigned to the high school.

"I am deeply disappointed that Mr. Hollis has sunk to this level," Johnson said in an email. "He is a professional attorney representing the interests of his clients or so I would hope. This kind of chicanery is not consistent with good legal representation. It doesn't merit any further comment."
