Chief Tyree Davis said when investigators spoke with family members of Marsharea Armstrong, they were told she was teaching the child how to drive. “We informed the family that's what driver education classes are for.”
The video was posted to Armstrong's Facebook page on April 13 and police were made aware of it, Davis said in a statement.
After an investigation, Detective W.C. Murphy Jr. charged Armstrong with contributing to the delinquency of a minor by allowing the child to operate a vehicle while being a passenger.
Lieutenant Daniel Jones arrested Armstrong Thursday and took her to the magistrate's office, which set a July 15 court date.
