“One of my students has a gun in his backpack,” an administrator who called police told a dispatcher.
The administrator said in the call that she searched the juvenile’s backpack because he was “acting suspicious” and had gotten into some trouble over the summer, so she wanted to make sure everyone was safe. She said that she locked the backpack containing the gun in her office while the student was in class, unaware that she had found the weapon.
The News-Sun requested an incident report from the Springfield Division of Police for further information. This story will be updated.
