A Spotsylvania County, Virginia, elementary school administrator has been arrested after allegedly assaulting a 5-year-old student, according to law enforcement officials.
The Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office said on social media that Spotswood Elementary School Assistant Principal Misty Kelley, 52, has been charged with assault and battery in an Aug. 28 incident.
The sheriff’s office first became aware of an incident at the elementary school involving a member of the staff Aug. 28 when it received a report that a 5-year-old girl had allegedly been assaulted by Kelley.
The child’s mother claimed that when her child returned home from school, the pupil showed signs of bruising on the back and ribs, officials said.

An investigation determined that the adult who allegedly grabbed and injured the child was Kelley, the sheriff’s office said.
