(CBS/AP) CINCINNATI - An Ohio day care worker was arrested Thursday for allegedly biting a 5-year-old boy as a way to teach him not to bite others, according to court records.

Robin Mullins, 56, was arrested after police said a visible bite mark was left on the boy's arm in the suburban Cincinnati day care facility.

Police said the boy was brought to the office of Andrew's Friends Pre-School & Day Care for biting another child. A police report said Mullins bit the biting child on the arm, leaving a mark, "to teach him a 'lesson.' "

Mullins was later freed without bail. The day care had no comment, but another worker said Friday that the case is under investigation.
