PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — A lockdown has been lifted at Farrell Elementary School in Northeast Philadelphia after police say a student brought a gun to school Tuesday morning.
The student's mother noticed one of her guns was missing, so she notified the school via email.
Administrators searched the student's backpack and found a gun, as well as bullets inside a pencil case.
The school was locked down around 8 a.m. as police responded and recovered the gun. The student was taken into police custody, and the lockdown was lifted about an hour later.
No injuries were reported.
