At approx. 10:24 AM this morning, a 9-year-old student at Billingsley Elementary accidentally discharged a loaded handgun, during class, while reaching into their book bag to retrieve a paper. The bag was in the students lap at that time. The teacher and a school resource officer who was nearby responded immediately and the gun was recovered from the book bag.
No one was injured.
It is not clear at this time who the firearm belongs to and why it was in their book bag. The investigation is ongoing.
