Dodge County School Board member arrested for bringing a weapon to school

A Dodge County supervisor and school board member was taken to jail Wednesday after he brought a firearm into a local elementary school, authorities said.

The incident occurred at Honor Elementary School, 201 Center St. in Neosho, part of the Herman/Neosho/Rubicon school district.

Dodge County Sheriff Dale Schmidt said Tuesday his office received four separate reports from citizens and received a call from the county saying board member Daniel Siegmann had gone to the school to meet with the county administrator and Siegmann brought a gun to school.

Schmidt said Siegmann was in the building around 3 p.m. The school’s website states that school ends at 3:30 p.m
