Teen arrested for bringing loaded gun to Michigan school near this week's deadly shooting

A teen was arrested for bringing loaded gun to school near this week's deadly shooting at Oxford Hight School in Michigan, as nearby schools announced closures.

In the wake of Tuesday's deadly school shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan, a 17-year-old boy has been arrested for bringing a loaded gun to a nearby school.

The teen was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon on Wednesday at Southfield Regional Academic Campus, about 30 miles south of Oxford High School, after a classmate tipped off the principal, said Jeff Jagielski, a spokesperson for the Southfield Police Department.

The classmate told the principal that the teenager was known to carry a gun at school, but he did not know whether he had it with him Wednesday, Jagielski said. The classmate spoke up because of Tuesday's shooting at Oxford High School, Jagielski said.

The principal alerted a school resource officer, who found the gun, loaded with three rounds, in the student's coat pocket, Jagielski said.
