Less than a week after a 21-year-old Milford man was arrested for gun possession in the parent pickup area of Milford High School, a student at Milford Central Academy was arrested for bringing a handgun to school.
A student at MCA notified school administration that a 13-year-old male student was displaying what appeared to be a firearm. An investigation revealed that the student was in possession of an unloaded handgun. The School Resource Officer secured the handgun and took the student into custody. Further investigation revealed the student was not in possession of any ammunition.
The student was charged with possession, purchase, own or control of a deadly weapon by a person under the age of 18; carrying a concealed deadly weapon; terroristic threatening and possession of a weapon in a safe recreation zone.
The student was turned over to his parents with a pending court date in Kent County Family Court.
