Police say that a co-owner of the school, 24-year-old Nadia Choudhry of Manassas, was charged with failing to report the Sept. 11 incident to authorities, as required by state law.

A phone call to the school was not immediately returned Monday.

Brown's phone number is unlisted, and her attorney in an unrelated matter didn't return a call for comment Monday.
