A Greene County High School male is charged with a felony following an argument allegedly involving a shotgun.
Jefferson Police Captain Jason Kroeger tells Raccoon Valley Radio they responded to the call at the high school at 12:25pm Friday. Kroeger says two juvenile males had an ongoing argument which eventually led to the parking lot. He points out one of the males showed the other male a shotgun that was in his vehicle. However, Kroeger believes at no time was the weapon taken out of the vehicle or any direct threats were made to use the firearm. No one was hurt in the incident.
Officers were able to locate the juvenile male that had a shotgun in his vehicle after lunch and he admitted to police that he had the weapon. The juvenile was arrested and charged with a Class D Felony for carrying weapons on school grounds, an aggravated misdemeanor for first degree harassment, and a simple misdemeanor for manner of conveyance with an unloaded and assembled weapon. Kroeger says the investigation is ongoing at this time.
