NORFOLK, Va. — A teenager whom police took into custody at Granby High School has been charged with Brandishing a Firearm.
Officers made the arrest Tuesday, during a school lockdown that lasted from 10 a.m. until the end of the school day. The Norfolk Police Department was investigating a tip that a student had possibly entered the school with a gun following an incident that occurred off-campus.
Several students were detained by police officers. Only one, a 15-year-old boy, was arrested.
Later that night, Norfolk Public Schools sent out a message saying officers hadn't found any weapons at the school, and nobody was hurt.
The Norfolk Police Department did not explain what circumstances led to the teen's charges or if a weapon was recovered.
His name wasn't shared. A spokesperson said he was being held at the Norfolk Detention Center for the time being.
