Dallas police say someone flagged down officers after they saw someone trying to sneak a gun into the stadium through a fence. A 17-year-old, who wasn't a student at either school, was found with the gun.
Richardson ISD says its safety and security protocols worked when a 17-year-old was arrested with a gun during a football game on Friday.There are metal detectors at the games, but Dallas police say a gun was passed through a fence line of the stadium to avoid them. Now, a 17-year-old is facing a felony charge.
According to Dallas police, someone at Lake Highlands’ home game against Berkner High noticed a gun being passed through a fence at the stadium. They spoke up to security who alerted police. "‘Snitches get stitches’ is what I’m hearing, and that’s not something I believe in," she said. Richardson ISD says the 17-year-old was not one of its students and may have been trying to bypass metal detectors at entrances.
Less than two weeks ago, two teens were arrested at Everman High’s football stadium as police say there were trying to bring in an AR-15 pistol and shoot multiple people.
