Questions are surfacing after the Summit County Juvenile Prosecutor's office dismissed a charge against a 14-year-old boy who had a gun in his backpack at Kenmore-Garfield High School in Akron.
Pat Shipe, president of Akron Education Association, called the decision"alarming" and wants to know why it happened.
A school resource officer was notified and confiscated the gun. The officer also found"a burnt marijuana roach" in the student's right pants pocket, according to the report. "A weapon is a weapon," she said."I don't believe whether the gun is loaded or unloaded, it should not make any difference. We cannot begin to minimize and desensitize the society to students bringing weapons into school buildings," Shipe said.
