Some Dallas middle school students are afraid to return to class after chilling claims surface of a sexual assault on campus.
The victim claims after school Monday someone raped her at gunpoint inside the Thomas A. Edison Learning Center in Dallas.
Many parents didn't hear about the reported incident until they arrived at the school to drop off their children Tuesday morning.
Michelle Brown, the parent of an Edison student and the owner of Katie's Little Angels day care next door to the middle school, said the student ran to her business for help after the attack and that the child told her she'd just been raped inside of the girl's bathroom by a man with a gun.
"It was just very, very devastating," said Brown. "When she was leaving her after-school program, she went into the restroom. A guy followed her in there, forced her down and raped her. Her pants wasn't even on. She was holding them up. We saw her underwear. Her pants was ripped. She was really distraught, really crying," Brown said.
Brown called 911 before calling the girl's mother, who was already at the school to pick up her child and had been unable to locate her.
"[The] mom, she just collapsed in the parking lot," Brown said, of the child's mother's reaction to the news.
Word of the attack began to spread through the student body, putting students and parents on edge as the Dallas Police Department investigates.
"When I heard, I was crying. My heart dropped when I did hear it," said Edison 8th grader, Denisha McDonald. "I'm scared to even go to school."
"I'm like, 'Wow,' and thinking, 'Should I even send my daughter to school today?'" said mother Jamie Lewis.
As many parents worry about the safety of their children, the district said they're still gathering information after learning of the alleged attack late Monday night.
Spokesperson Jon Dahlander told NBC 5 the following: "The district learned of the allegation around 7 p.m. Because of the time that the allegation was made, it was impossible to get a letter out to parents last night. A note will likely be sent home with students today as more details become available."
NBC 5 has learned parents should receive a letter Tuesday.
Dallas police aren't saying if someone is in custody or if they're searching for the girl's attacker. Meanwhile, there is increased security at the school and crisis counselors are on campus to help students in need cope with the attack.
