A 10-year old Ocala girl brought her lunch to school and a small kitchen knife to cut it. She now faces a felony charge after being arrested. The Sunrise Elementary School and the sheriff's office disagree on the reason for the arrest.
School officials say the 5th grader had brought a piece of steak for her lunch, but she also brought a steak knife. The 10-year-old used the knife to cut the meat. That's when deputies were called. "She did not use it inappropriately. She did not threaten anyone with it. She didn't pull it out and brandish it. Nothing of that nature," explained Marion County School Spokesman Kevin Christian.
But a couple of teachers took the utensil and called the sheriff. When deputies arrived, they were unable to get the child's parents on the phone,
so they arrested her and took her to the county's juvenile assessment center.
