Updated 1:29 PM;
The principal of Banks-Caddell Elementary School in Decatur was arrested over the weekend on domestic violence charges.
WHNT is reporting that David Allan McCollum, 40, was arrested on two domestic violence warrants by Arab police late last week.
McCollum was charged with two counts of third-degree domestic violence, one for assault and another for menacing involving a gun. Both charges are misdemeanors.
Arab police said the warrants were for an incident that happened March 14 in the 500 block of Fairway Drive.
Decatur City Schools spokesman Dwight Satterfield said McCollum’s last day as principal was March 12, and he was placed on administrative leave March 19. On March 26, the Decatur City Board of Education decided not to renew his contract, which expires June 30, Satterfield said.
