ORLANDO --

A woman who led a charge to put up cameras at an Orlando trailer park to monitor sex offenders has been arrested.

Barbara Farris was arrested Thursday, and county jail records showed she was taken into custody, on a warrant from Alabama on a charge of menacing.

But details about the charge are not known.

Farris is the president of a group known as the Bee Squad, which tracks sex offenders around Central Florida.

She wanted to put up cameras at Lake Shore Village, where around 100 sex offenders live, because she said it's near a school bus stop.
