Saly Lake City, UT -- A middle school employee on Tuesday pleaded guilty to charges that he used a stun gun on a student.

Shaun Ellis, 25, faces probation to six months in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree assault, prosecutor Kerri Lombardi said.

Ellis, who worked in an after-school program at Horace Mann Middle School, called a boy out class Jan. 11 and took him to the school's empty auditorium.

The boy said Ellis told him he was in trouble for tripping a girl the night before at an after-school basketball game, shocked him three times and punched him in the stomach, Lombardi said.

The boy described the shocks as "like 1,000 bee stings," she said.

Sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 7.

A phone number was not listed in Denver for Ellis and it was not immediately clear if he had retained an attorney.
