A Broward County Public Schools assistant principal was arrested Sunday in Weston in connection with an off-campus incident and has since been reassigned from his school.

Marc Horowitz, 53, is charged with robbery by sudden snatching and domestic violence battery, according to records. He was being held at the Broward Main Jail, with bond to be set.
