Science teacher accused of burning students' arms

A science teacher may face charges for burning students with a Tesla coil.

A prosecutor says he isn't filing criminal charges "at this time" against the Oregon science teacher accused of burning the phrase "I love mom" into students' arms.

Samuel Dufner was arrested Tuesday at South Salem High School.

He has been placed on leave.

The Tesla coil transmits electricity without wires at high frequency and high voltage levels.
