When the detectives arrived, the gun was found in the student’s backpack.
Houston police did not disclose if the gun was loaded.
“It’s upsetting to be in this situation where our kids need to be safe at school. We don’t even feel like our kids are safe at school,” said Rego Rodriguez, a parent. “That’s just the way it is. I tell them every morning to call me if there’s a problem.”
