7-year-old boy brings .22 calibre handgun to school in New York.

NEW YORK (AFP) - A seven-year-old boy brought a gun to school in his book bag on Thursday, New York police said. The find - a .22 calibre handgun - caused police to place the Wave Preparatory Elementary School in the Far Rockaway neighborhood of Queens on lockdown for about an hour. The student has not been identified, and police declined to specify whether the gun was loaded. An investigation into the incident is ongoing. Thursday morning's discovery came during a heated debate about gun control in the United States sparked by the Dec 14 shooting at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, that claimed the lives of 20 first graders and six adults.
