NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — A gun was confiscated from a student at McGavock High School in Donelson Friday morning.

A spokesperson with Metro Nashville Public Schools said McGavock administrators received a tip about a student who possibly brought a gun to school.

Administrators and an SRO located the student, searched him and found and secured the weapon, according to MNPS.

Officers took the student into custody without incident.

Bringing a firearm to school is a zero-tolerance offense and serious violation of law. We appreciate the school administration acting on the information received in order to keep students and staff at the school safe.
