NAPLES, Fla. -- A 6-year-old special education student who kicked a Naples teacher's aide and spent several hous in juvenile jail is facing felony battery charges.

Her mother, however, wants to know why the case has gone so far.

Takovia Allen suffers from behavioral problems and attends a special class at Lely Elementary in Naples.

According to an arrest report, on May 2, a teacher was trying to line up students to go to music class. Takovia refused to go and kicked the teacher's aide in the ankle.

After a discussion among school officials and two law enforcement officials called to the school, the girl was arrested.

Takovia was taken to juvenile jail and held there for several hours before being released to her mother.

She is being charged with battery on a public education employee.

It's possible she will enter a program that includes counseling. If she completes the program successfully the charges could be dropped.

I am brain dead My mistake and thanks for setting me straight

If the student was in special ed and had documented problems then there was no need to get the police involved. Even if the kid didn't have problems c'mon they were 6 years old. A time out, and a whack by their parents yea but not 4 hours in jail. Think of the cost to the taxpayers to process them + the upcoming suit by the parents for millions of dollars.

Whoever called the police on that needs to be checked out mentally.

Actually, if she was charged with a felony for kicking a teacher, and the charge sticks? Its a sin of sins. Illegals prance around this country ILLEGALY, rape, steal, impersonate, kill, DUI,DWI, and bring our neighborhoods down to the level of a 3rd world toilet and they get AMNESTY!!! I think it has alot to do with ILLEGAL immigration.....

Ya.....they'll do something like this to a child and let the real criminals run free. How sad for the little girl. It's not right to kick but this was way overkill.
