A 12-year-old US boy accused of walking into a classroom with a handgun, pointing it at his teacher and pulling the trigger is in custody on a charge of attempted murder.

The gun did not go off as the safety catch was on. The teacher then managed to talk him down and disarm him, court papers say.
====================================================
Poor firearms training. Wonder what set him off? I think he needs a little anger management.

It's nice to see that school security is improving and that teachers are disarming their students just fine without need of any special training or additional security measures.

And maybe someone needs to chat with his parents about the gun.
