Two Florida school employees are facing charges after they were seen tying a 7-year-old autistic child to a chair for an hour, police say.

Teacher Carina Chindamo, 31, and aide Taylor Internicola, 39, stand accused of one count each of false imprisonment, the Bradenton Police Department announced in a Tuesday afternoon press release.

According to Manatee County jail records, however, Chindamo was charged with one count of battery — touch or strike. County court records refer to the charge as “simple battery.” She was arrested on Feb. 5 and bonded out on Feb. 6. A warrant is currently out for Internicola’s arrest, police say.
