ABC 15reports police say a Mesa kindergarten teacher is facing indecent exposure and child abuse charges after removing a student's shirt leaving her naked from the waist up.

Mesa police spokesman Steve Berry said the incident happened on Wednesday at Adams Elementary School in Mesa.

Berry said teacher Thomas Washburn, 54, was reportedly upset and shouting in his class causing a 6-year-old girl to hide her face in her shirt.

Authorities said when Washburn told her to take her face out of her shirt and she did not comply, he removed her shirt, leaving her naked from the waist up.

Berry said the girl was left naked for approximately 10 minutes crying as class continued. Eventually Washburn returned the girl's shirt so she could put it back on.

Police said when the girl's mother arrived after school to pick up the child, Washburn told her what he had done.

The girl's mother immediately contacted the principal's office. When school staff learned what happened, they called police.

Berry said the 6-year-old's mother described her daughter as "developmentally delayed" due to being born prematurely. She said the child was frightened by the shouting which caused her to hide in her shirt.

Detectives interviewed the girl and her mother and confirmed what had happened. Police located Washburn and transported him to Mesa police headquarters to be interviewed.
