MARGATE, Fla. — A Broward County elementary school teacher was arrested Sunday, months after she allegedly brought a stun gun to school, authorities said.
According to an arrest report from the Margate Police Department, Nia Natalie Robinson, 27, is a teacher at Liberty Elementary School, located at 2450 Banks Road.
Police said Robinson brought the stun gun on campus on April 17 and showed it to two other employees.
According to the report, Robinson provided a written statement to school staff, stating that she “totally forgot” that she had her stun gun on school grounds and showed it to the two employees when having a conversation with them about protecting herself.
Police said Robinson claimed that she did not use the stun gun on campus and was “very apologetic.”
They said both employees also provided written statements, corroborating Robinson’s explanation.
According to the report, the stun gun was confiscated by a school resource officer.
The report states that a probable cause affidavit was then submitted to the Broward County State Attorney’s Office to determine whether Robinson would face charges.
She was consequently arrested Sunday on a charge of possession of a weapon on school grounds.
As of Monday morning, Robinson was being held at the North Broward Bureau. She was expected to appear in bond court later in the morning or afternoon.
