"But when I saw this -- well, it's incredible. It is just so authentic. This has the potential for harm in various ways."

Euless, TX -- A Trinity High School sophomore afraid he was going to be beaten up carried a loaded handgun around the school for most of Thursday before he was detained by a school resource officer and a school official, police said Friday.
