....after a teacher reported seeing a male student holding a gun while standing over a female student, officials said.

"We have not located the alleged gun. We're not certain or sure there is a gun. But we want to obviously make sure there is no gun outstanding," said Sacramento Police Department spokesman Justin Risley.

The teacher who said she spotted the weapon is a retired Stockton police officer. She said she is certain she saw a gun.

The male student was charged with having a gun on school property.

-----------

Step 1) Be certain somebody had a gun
Step 2) Call the cops and conduct search for said gun
Step 3) Do not find gun and declare you "are not sure" if there even was a gun
Step 4) Lacking any evidence other than somebody who is "certain" there was a gun, charge student anyways.

Well, there goes the 4th amendment, now....
