Former Ohio School Superintendent Arrested for Alleged Kidnapping in West Virginia
A former Columbus-area superintendent was arrested Thursday in Huntington, West Virginia after police alleged that he attempted to kidnap two children.
William Morrison, 59, of Huntington, was charged with two felony counts of kidnapping resulting from an incident that occurred on Aug. 17, when local police allege he lured two children into his vehicle in Huntington.
In 2017, Morrison was released from his contract as superintendent of the Columbus-area Hamilton Local School District after Columbus police found crack cocaine in his car.
