Student Brings Gun to Springfield School, Facing Discipline

One student at a Springfield elementary-middle school is facing discipline after allegedly bringing a gun to school.

Parents at Westport K-8 were notified Monday that a middle school student was discovered with the weapon on school grounds.

The student later showed the gun to classmates walking home from school.

Investigators say the gun was not used in a threatening way.

School officials still plan to pursue disciplinary action against the student for bringing the gun.
