On Wednesday, April 15, school administrators at Glymont Middle School were notified that a 13-year-old seventh-grade student was in possession of a handgun. The student had reportedly shown the firearm to another student, who informed additional students. The information was ultimately reported to school administration and a school resource officer.
The student was removed from class and during a search, a handgun was located concealed on his person. The handgun had a loaded magazine, but the gun’s chamber was not loaded.
No threats toward any individuals were made. Preliminary findings indicate the handgun belongs to a family member of the student.
The student was taken into custody by a school resource officer, and the incident is being reviewed with the Department of Juvenile Services (DJS) for further action. The investigation is ongoing, including follow-up regarding the circumstances of the student’s access to the firearm.
