COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A Columbus high school principal was fired for failing to call police after learning that a female student had been sexually assaulted by four male students in the school auditorium.

The Columbus Board of Education on Tuesday placed Regina Crenshaw on unpaid leave from her $95,000-a-year position at Mifflin High School and began termination proceedings.

The board also handed down 10-day, unpaid suspensions to three assistant principals and said they would be transferred when they return.

Superintendent Gene Harris said police, the parents, children's services and school district administrators should have been notified immediately about the assault on March 9.

In court documents obtained by NBC 4, the four male students allegedly grabbed the 16-year-old Mifflin High School student by the arm and took her to the stage area of the auditorium. Two of the male students allegedly forced her to perform oral sex on them, according to the documents.

Police said one of the students videotaped her performing the sex act and then took the video equipment to math class to show other students, NBC 4's Nancy Burton reported.

School administrators confiscated the videotape and talked to the girl. But relatives of the alleged victim called police, not the principal or any of the assistants, Burton reported.

The father of the 16-year-old girl, who is developmentally disabled, had to call police and take his daughter to the hospital.
