The incident happened on Sept. 27 at about 11 a.m., when a staff member saw the man and reported him to the school's resource officer. But according to a letter that the parents received from the school's principal, "police do not believe the man had any ill intent." Ladd's attorney, Clayton Rawlings, said his client was walking his dog near the school when police were called.Without going into detail, Rawlings believes there's been a misunderstanding.While documents state that Ladd went onto the premises with the weapon, the principal wrote that he did not approach any students or employees and surrendered his weapon to the police.I am writing to inform you about an incident that took place near our school today.
