Davida CaylorA woman who accused a Catoosa County, Ga., assistant principal of assaulting her son at school has been arrested on charges that she lied to police.
Davida Caylor made a complaint Feb. 8 against Heritage High School Assistant Principal Eric Beagles alleging he had hurt her son at school, Sheriff Gary Sisk said in a news release.
The Catoosa County Schools conducted an internal investigation into the Feb. 6 incident.
Schools spokeswoman Marissa Brower said the allegation was that Beagles bruised the teen’s hand.
“The student was in the assistant principal’s office for a discipline issue. The student was not happy with the discipline, and he reached across the assistant principal’s desk and grabbed his phone,” she said. “The [assistant] principal reached out and put the phone down while [the student’s] hand was on it.”
