A middle school teacher in central Florida has been arrested on a child abuse allegation after officials said the teacher physically dragged a seventh-grade student out of a classroom, Orlando station Fox 35 reported on Oct. 2, citing officials involved in the case.

Orlando station WFTV reported the same arrest, describing a Seminole County teacher accused of child abuse after allegedly pulling a student by the arm. Both reports indicate the allegation stems from an incident at school during the academic day.
