The gun was found by a teacher at around 8:45 a.m. The teacher was “assisting a 5-year-old student into an empty classroom, then discovered the gun inside the child’s tote bag,” according to Fox2Now.
The Town and Country Police Department is investigating the incident, and they say it was an “inadvertent incident with no intention on the part of the student.” There have been no injuries reported related to the situation.
Where and how the kid got access to the gun will be the next big question in the minds of the public, no doubt.
This incident comes five weeks after a teacher in Virginia was shot by a six-year-old, who had also brought a gun to school.
