Darpan News Desk IANS, 05 Dec, 2017 01:49 PM

    A 28-year-old teacher has been arrested after she allegedly had sex with a 16-year-old student in a park this past spring, police in Solebury Township, Pa., said.

     

    Alyssia Marie Reddy is charged with institutional sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor, criminal use of a communication facility, and corruption of a minor for allegedly having sex with a 16-year-old student in a park in Pennsylvania.

     

    Reddy, an English teacher at a private school in Pennington, New Jersey, allegedly gave the student (name withheld) her cell phone number and then added him on Snapchat in December 2016.

     

    She reportedly started sending him explicit messages, including one, according to the student, in February 2017 that allegedly said “I want your hands on me”.

     

    Reddy is living in the Baltimore area. Her husband, Michael Reddy, is also a teacher who worked at the Lawrenceville School in Mercer County

     

    She was arrested Friday on charges of institutional sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor, criminal use of a communication facility and corruption of a minor, a Solebury Township police department release said.

     

    "This news is deeply disturbing to all of us and saddens us. We have terminated Mrs. Reddy's employment with St. Paul's School for Girls, effective immediately," the school said in a statement. "Mrs. Reddy is barred from campus and we discontinued her access to the school's computer network. Before today, we had no information suggesting any prior improper conduct by Mrs. Reddy."

     

    She’s being held in Baltimore while waiting to be extradited to Pennsylvania, police say.
