(Mike Osborne) — A Metro Nashville Public Schools student was caught carrying a gun on campus Friday.
It was the second time in a week that a MNPS student was arrested for bringing a gun to school.
Pearl-Cohn students alerted administrators that a 16-year-old male student had threatened to bring a gun to class.
The student was met at the schoolhouse door Friday and searched. He was found to be carrying a loaded pistol.
Also last week, a 16-year-old Maplewood High student was arrested for bringing a loaded handgun with one round chambered on to school grounds.
