This is impossible! Schools are gun-free zones!

Good thing the courts took God out of the public schools. Why, who knows what crazy things the students might do if they followed the Ten Commandments!

Police: Suspect in Scott High School incident now in custody

Toledo Police say the suspect is now in custody after responding to a reported person with a gun at Scott High School in central Toledo.

Police say the person is not an active shooter. The school is currently on lockdown and parents have been notified of the situation.

Toledo Police spokesperson Lt. Mark King says police negotiators are speaking with a 14-year-old student who is isolated in a hallway. King says two classrooms near the hallway have been evacuated.

King says police negotiators saw what appeared to be the handle of a hand gun, but that it is unclear what type of weapon the student is holding.

A TPS spokesperson says this is an isolated event and students are safe, but will not be released until the situation is resolved. King stressed that all other students still inside the school are safe.

A flash grenade attached to bottom should do the trick.

"I think there’s a pretty darn good reason to kill this kid."

Wait, did you read this all?

If I read it correctly the kid HAS a gun NOT Pointing a gun or waving it around but it sounds like it is stuck in his pants or clothes etc.

That is not a reason to shoot and/or kill.

First of all it could be a fake gun OR not even a gun at all.

If the description in the story is true then it sounds like they handled it right.

but shooting BECAUSE he has a gun is wrong! Period.

WHEN he brings it out and starts pointing it THEN its trigger time.

As long as he’s handling the gun in a responsible manner there isn’t a problem.
