Edison High School Student Arrested After Bringing Firearm on Campus


 FRESNO, CA (KMJ) – A student is arrested Wednesday at Edison High School after a firearm was found in his possession.

Edison High School administrators say the discovery followed a report that a student had a weapon on campus and had threatened another student.

Officials and the school resource officer brought the student to the front office.

He initially denied having any prohibited items, however, a subsequent search revealed the student had a firearm.

It was immediately confiscated, and the student was arrested.

Principal Jose Munoz says parents must understand the serious implications of having a gun in a school setting.

Parents we kindly ask you to discuss this matter with your children and ensure that any firearms in your home are securely stored. Thank you for your continued support in maintaining a safe environment for our students.
