The Montgomery County Police Department was called to Silver Spring International Middle School Thursday after learning that a student shot her classmate with a BB gun.
According to a statement from the principal, the student was showing off the loaded BB gun to a friend while in her 7th-grade classroom, when it accidentally discharged and struck her friend in the thigh.
The classroom teacher immediately called school administrators and security, who confiscated the BB gun and removed both students from the classroom.
The school nurse examined the student who was shot and found no injury...

Once.again, the long list of failures by MCPS to be accountable to the student. How did they let a gun into a 7th grade classroom?
ReplyDeleteIt apparently was a "ghost" gun.
