7-year old child fires shot into truck from school bus stop
Here's hoping they find the "owner" of this weapon.

=====

A young boy fired a 9mm handgun into an unoccupied vehicle while waiting for a bus to take him to Ries Elementary School early Friday morning.

About 45 schoolchildren were waiting at the school bus stop near Misty Haze Street and Wigwam Avenue in the southwest valley when the shot was fired, but no one was injured, said Sgt. Darnell Couthen of the Clark County School District police.

Couthen said a 7-year-old boy took the gun, which was reported stolen, from his home and showed it to another 7-year-old boy, who fired the weapon.

The bus driver contacted police after learning about the incident from the children.

The boys were too young to be taken into custody, but were kept out of school for the day.

1. Guns.
Hate 'em. Glad no one was hurt. The parents will do time though.

2. To Parent: Where'd he get the gun?
Parent: How am I supposed to know? He's always been that way. I can't do nothing with him.
