Local Teacher Fired But Not Charged

The Olentangy Local School Board has decided to fire a veteran teacher whose son reported a pot-growing operation in the family's basement last August.An attorney for the teacher says she'll challenge the firing. The attorney says she had no idea her husband had grown marijuana in a locked room where they lived with their three children. No criminal charges have been filed in the case.
