At about 7:45 am Wednesday morning. School Resource Deputies responded to a report of a student having brought a weapon into Gordon Central High School.
A School Resource Deputy, already on the school campus, reacted promptly, detained the (juvenile) student in question, and located the weapon which on examination was found to be a BB gun.
The weapon had been brought to the attention of authorities by another student who’d seen it earlier.
The juvenile who brought the weapon to school is being charged with the offense in Gordon County Juvenile Court.
Sheriff Ralston praised both school administrators and the School Resource Deputies for swiftly and safely resolving the situation.
