A longtime Colorado middle school teacher killed
herself in front of police as they approached her home this week as part of an
investigation into allegations she had sex with a student.
Gretchen Krohnfeldt, 47, taught
at Drake Middle School in Arvada where police say an employee claimed to
have witnessed an inappropriate interaction between her and a male student
months ago before reporting it this past Monday.
According to CBS News, Arvada police say the relationship allegedly
began when the student, who is now in high school, attended Drake Middle.
The alleged sexual relations
took place at Krohnfeldt's home, cops said.
Krohnfeldt, a mother of three,
was placed on leave by school officials Monday.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's
Office did not cite the manner of Krohnfeldt's death, which is still under
investigation by the coroner.
