So, the headlines from Bossier City yesterday were about an "unknown man" trying to force his way into an elementary school, and the school going on lockdown.
Today, it turns out he wasn't unknown, merely irate that the school wouldn't let him check his child out of school. The school has a policy again checking out close to afternoon dismissal -- but the last time I checked, someone holding your child against your will constituted kidnapping.
They wouldn't buzz him him, so he tried a couple of different doors then left. A school employee called police and reported that he had a gun. Police went to his house and surrounded it, he came out peacefully and surrendered, and they searched the house -- no guns found except for a single toy gun.
Now, check out this quote: "The initial charge of having a firearm on a school campus will stand for now, Dison said, because investigators cannot disprove the initial complaint that Allen, 38, had a gun. Allen is not cooperating with investigators, [chief of school security Danny] Dison said."
Wait... they press charges because they can't prove the accusation is false?!?
I can bet he's "not cooperating", which I assume means he wants a lawyer and won't talk without one. I'd be "not cooperating" my ass off under those circumstances!

He remains in jail on a $50,000 bond.
