Minnesota Teacher Accused of Having Sex with Student

NEW YORK MILLS, Minn. (AP) — A Minnesota teacher is accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student.

Otter Tail County court documents show that 37-year-old Kris Koll, of New York Mills, is charged with fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct in a position of authority.

Court documents accuse Koll of having a number of encounters with the student that involved sexual contact. The alleged victim told investigators that she began babysitting for Koll's family last year and was one of Koll's students in the 8th and 10th grades.

New York Mills Superintendent Blaine Novak tells KFGO radio that Koll has been placed on administrative leave.
