Deana Salter, a teacher at Somerton Middle School, was arrested Monday after a staff member discovered her unattended makeup bag on campus. Inside the bag, officials found about 4.35 grams of meth.

Lieutenant Sam Pavlak of the Yuma County Sheriff’s Office said a staff member found the bag and looked inside to identify its owner. Instead, the employee uncovered the illicit drugs.
