SEATTLE — A teacher at Seattle’s prestigious Lakeside School has been fired after he was accused of sexual misconduct with a minor in another state.
KING-TV reported that the misconduct allegedly took place in a suburb outside Columbus, Ohio.
U.S. Attorney and Department of Homeland Security officials arrested the teacher, who was recently hired at Lakeside. He is being held in the King County Jail pending charges and extradition to Ohio.
Lakeside officials say the school is cooperating with authorities in the investigation. They say the Department of Homeland Security does not suspect any wrongdoing since the teacher came to Lakeside.
