Nobody has been hurt after a 4-year-old pre-kindergarten student took
a loaded gun in his backpack to a South Texas elementary school.
Officials with the La Joya Independent School District say a teacher
confiscated the weapon and locked the gun in a safe until police
arrived.
The incident happened Thursday at Rosendo Benavides Elementary School
in Sullivan City. The boy mentioned the gun to other students, who then
told a teacher.
Police are speaking with the child’s relatives to determine how he
acquired the gun, which had 15 bullets in the magazine but no rounds in
the chamber.
District police Chief Raul Gonzalez says investigators do not believe
the boy planned to use the gun. School officials will consider any
possible punishment for the child.
