ERIN, Ont. -- Police have charged a teenage boy for allegedly taking an imitation gun to school in southern Ontario.
Officers were called to the high school in Erin on Thursday after students told staff that one of their classmates might have a weapon.
Provincial police say they found a 16-year-old with an "imitation firearm."
Police would not say whether the fake gun had the capacity to fire projectiles like pellets or BBs.
The teen was charged with carrying a concealed weapon, assault with intent to resist arrest, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, and uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm.
