Michigan State Police are investigating how a school resource officer at Bay City Western High School Friday, Nov. 11, fired his gun inside the school building.
Police were dispatched at about 12:30 p.m. Friday to the Bay County high school, 500 W. Midland Road, said Sgt. Jim Lang, with the Michigan State Police.
The officer, who is contracted through the Bay County Sheriff's Office, was in a room by himself when his firearm was discharged. Lang said the deputy "unintentionally" fired his weapon. No one was injured in the incident.
Lang declined to comment any further on why the gun would have been discharged until the investigation wraps up. |

Everyone, that's everyone including law enforcement, needs gun safety training. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
