A sword-wielding woman was arrested Wednesday morning after she entered a mosque located on the campus of a private Orlando school.
Dominique Vianneyte Eloi, 47, was arrested on charges of possession of a weapon on school grounds, disrupting a school function and aggravated assault with a weapon.
According to the Orange County Sheriff's Office, Eloi drove onto the campus of Leaders Preparatory School on North Goldenrod Road near East Colonial Drive and North Chickasaw Trail and got out of her car carrying a 2-foot-long sword.
An employee asked the woman what she was doing, but she did not respond, authorities said. Authorities say she didn't speak English and had several identifications on her, including one from Arizona.
The school was placed on lockdown, and the school worker called authorities.
Deputies spotted Eloi leaving the mosque and she was arrested.
No one was injured.
An investigation is ongoing, and deputies said it's unclear why Eloi went to the campus. It's also not known if she has any ties to anyone at the school or mosque.
"I have no idea who she is or why she chose to come here," said Iman Mohammed Musri, of the Islamic Society of Central Florida. "I tried to speak to her, but she didn't respond to anything, she started speaking German."
According to the school's website, one of the listed goals is to "provide a comprehensive Islamic education combined with a general studies curriculum."
Please notice, pouty liberal reader, that the cops didn't find this alleged nut until she'd already done whatever the hell it was she wanted to do with that sword, and was -leaving-. Reassuring, yes?
Boy, its a good thing that school/mosque was a gun-free zone!
