"Eleven-Year-Old Brings Unloaded Gun To Newport News School"
Apr 1, 2008 4:00 PM EST

Newport News police say an 11-year-old at B. C. Charles Elementary School student was arrested, at school, after he was found to have a hand gun in his book bag.

The hand gun was not loaded and did not have any bullets in it, according to police.

Another student alerted a school administrator that the 11-year-old had the gun.

That's when police arrived and took the student to the Juvenile Intake and charged him with possession of a firearm on school property.

No one was hurt in the incident.

I dunno, lobsters are pretty smart, and relatively intelligent. You might be giving him too much credit, and assuming he's smarter than he really is. :?

Made me think of something like:

Unlicensed Student Brings Undrivable Car to School

The auto mobile did not have a fuel tank in it and was out of gas, according to police.

I am quite sure all of you are giving the reporter way to much credit. I am willing to bet he wrote down exactly what the police said. Therefore, the reporter is not the only Einstein in the crowd.

That's allowable as surveys show that Americans put reporters somewhere below defense attys and used car salesmen as far as trustworthiness. ;)

I figured you guys would have some great comments on that article and I was right! LMAO
