"My daughter came home today, she is ten years old, and she was like, ‘Oh my God daddy, there was a lockdown,’ I haven’t had the conversation yet," said Banneka Namasaka, who also has a child who is a 9th grader at Berkner. FOX 4 cameras were there when a Volkswagen Jetta in the parking lot where police were investigating was towed from the scene.
FOX 4 has learned Richardson police had contact with the juvenile in recent months, but sources did not have any details on the nature of that interaction with officers. Police charged the boy with unlawful carrying weapons in a weapon-free school zone.
