A teacher from western Massachusetts and her 15-year-old student — who disappeared a week ago after the boy's parents complained about the woman's relationship with their son — have been found in West Virginia.
Holyoke Mayor Michael Sullivan tells WWLP-TV in Springfield that police apprehended 24-year-old Lisa Lavoie and the boy in Morgantown, W.Va., on Tuesday morning.
Lavoie is being held on charges of child endangerment and is scheduled for a hearing later Tuesday.
Sullivan says arrangements are being made to return the boy to Massachusetts.
Police say they won't comment yet.
The boy's mother contacted Maurice Donahue Elementary School on Feb. 13, saying she was concerned about the relationship between her son and the teacher. The boy was reported missing Feb. 16.
