1. Mercer Island student charged with taking gun to school (WA)
"King County prosecutors charged a 14-year-old Mercer Island boy yesterday, saying he brought a gun to school and threatened to kill a classmate with it because the boy believed the classmate had destroyed a fort the boy had built.
The Islander Middle School eighth-grader was arrested and booked into the King County Youth Detention center on Monday after an assistant principal called police. An officer found an unloaded, .38-caliber revolver and a couple of bullets in the boy's backpack, as well as a spent casing and a jar containing what appeared to be marijuana, charging papers say.
The school, meanwhile, remains closed today as police continue the investigation of an e-mail sent to the school district Tuesday warning of more students planning to bring weapons to school. Police are investigating the validity of the threat and the identities of the person or persons involved. The school has been closed since Wednesday. "
