Two 10-year-old students were arrested in connection with a gun sold at their elementary school in Florida, county officials confirmed.
A deputy’s son “agreed to exchange a handgun, (later found to belong to his deceased father), for a sum of $300” back in February, the Hendry County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
The Country Oaks Elementary School was placed under lockdown Wednesday morning after the sheriff’s office received a call about “a suspicious incident” on campus. Authorities discovered ammunition in the backpack of the boy who purchased the gun.
The gun was later found in his backyard under a shed, hidden with a 74-gram bag of marijuana, according to investigators.

No personal concern! In Texas three youths robbed a bank the youngest was 11. Let’s say they robbed the bank attacked the security guard. Would it be right for him to light them up? Or better yet let’s say during the get away they run over your grandma and force a bus full of nuns off a bridge? Should Texas give them the electric chair?
