Wis. Student Arrested For Texting In Class

WAUWATOSA, Wis. (WCCO) ― A high school student in Wisconsin was arrested for disorderly conduct for refusing to stop texting in class, according to an incident report filed by the Wauwatosa Police Department.

The 14-year-old student was brought to the office and questioned by a student resource officer after her math teacher observed the student repeatedly texting despite demands that she stop.

The student claimed she didn't have a cell phone on her person, but a phone was discovered in her pants after a female police officer frisked her.

School authorities confiscated the phone and contacted the girl's mother. It was determined the phone belonged to the student's father.

The student was told she was not allowed on school property for a week and that she'd be charged with trespassing if she was found on school grounds.
