A mother trying to pick her special needs son up from school winds up in handcuffs and puts the school on lockdown.
The furious mother came to News 4 claiming the school handled things all wrong.
The incident took place at Walnut Groves Elementary School on Thursday when the mother came to help her son.
"I was lying in bed when I received a frantic phone call from the teacher, Michael was panicking," said Niakea Williams.
Michael is Williams' son and he suffers from Asperger's syndrome.
After getting the call, Williams came up to the Ferguson - Florissant school where she was buzzed in by school officials.
"I saw a teacher and she said Ms. Williams what is wrong? I said something is wrong with Mikey and proceeded to go straight to my son," said Williams.
She got to her son's classroom and immediately started to console him. Then the school principal informed her she was violated school policy by not signing in.
"I didn't sign the book, but I had to check on my son. You can bring me the book, She said oh no, I've already called the police. You called what," said Williams.
Calverton Park Police responded to the call that came out as an "unauthorized entry to a school." The school was also put on a 12-minute lockdown and a letter was sent home to parents.
"They escorted me away from my son, who already has emotional distress. Four officers told me to turn around and put my hands behind my back, I was under arrest," said Williams.
She was taken to the police station on trespassing charges but Williams said she is a known parent. In fact, she met with the principal on Wednesday about a separate issue.
She felt her arrest was unnecessary.
When asked if there needs to be discretion used, Williams said, Yes, I feel like today I got arrested for being a concerned parent of my child."
I Think it's time to change your national anthem. With all of the oppressiveness going on in that 'once' great nation of yours, under the direction of OBAMALAMADINGDONG.......I have to keep reminding myself that you guys are part of North America and not on the other side of the globe. Yet no one seems to be doing anything about it!!! As a proud Canadian, I can tell you that if our government, military and police force started 'controlling' us the way yours is there would be a revolution the NEXT DAY. Obama has already stated he is 'the only one in real power and will do whatever HE wants'. He is now setting-up nation wide military police operations.....and if they aren't in your neighborhood now they will be very soon. The bully and his drones are setting-up shop......Obama is preparing to wage war on unsuspecting american citizens. Why would you place military in your own neighborhoods with no outside enemy present??????? Because Obama wants a war SO very badly because he needs to strut his stuff and feed his ego (it must be hungy), and since no other coutry will join him on that crusade he figures he'll start one at home and slowly start to take away everyone's freedom....well not everyone.....not the elite, the people who scratch his back. I was not always a believer in the illuminati.....now I believe in it 100% and you should too.
