TEACHING ASSISTANT BARRICADES SELF, STUDENTS IN CLASS, STRIPS

San Diego police arrested Linda Lira, an after-school assistant at Lemon Grove Academy, after she allegedly locked herself into a classroom Wednesday with 14 students and began undressing and redressing herself. Police say that around 4 p.m. Wednesday, Lira, 31, started behaving strangely, and shut herself and a group of students into a classroom. Frightened by her apparently erratic behavior, students used the classroom radio to call for help. School’s staff fought with Lira to gain access to the classroom and remove children from her reach. When police arrived at the school, Lira had barricaded herself back into the classroom and was throwing things, toppling over desks and putting on and removing her clothes over and over again. Police believe Lira was exhibiting “multiple signs and symptoms of narcotics/hallucinogen use.”
