Police on Tuesday charged a 25-year-old teacher with selling drugs to a student at the high school where he taught. Howard County police arrested Fred Davis, of Laurel, after the student’s mother told them in early May that her child was communicating with the teacher on the Internet and that the communication between the two included references to drugs. Police said Davis teaches at Hammond High School, a high-achieving school in an affluent suburban community between Baltimore and Washington. The school’s web site identifies Davis as a member of the English department. Detectives searched Davis’ home Friday and arrested him for drug possession after allegedly finding marijuana. Davis was charged Tuesday with drug distribution, conspiracy to distribute drugs and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Davis was released Tuesday afternoon on his own unsecured bond, said police spokeswoman Jennifer Reidy. Source : wtopnews.com |
