CHESAPEAKE, Va. (WAVY) -- A girl at Grassfield High School in Chesapeake was arrested after another student reported an individual with a loaded gun on Monday, officials said. Police responded and escorted the juvenile off school property. She was immediately taken into custody and transported to Juvenile Intake, where charges are pending. Another student reportedly saw the individual with a handgun and immediately told an administrator. The voice message sent to parents was as follows: Good morning, this is Brian Haughinberry, Principal of Grassfield High School, with an important message for our parents and guardians. Earlier this morning, a student was taken into police custody after school administrators found the student in possession of a loaded firearm. I want to assure you that at no time were any threats made to students or staff during this incident. I want to commend the student who did the right thing by reporting this matter to a trusted adult. Today’s response is a strong example of our “see something, say something” message in action. I also want to remind everyone that weapons of any kind are strictly prohibited on school grounds, and violations result in serious consequences. In this case, immediate disciplinary action was taken, and the incident has been referred to the Chesapeake Police Department for further investigation. Chesapeake Public Schools is committed to prosecuting anyone who jeopardizes the safety of our schools to the fullest extent of the law. I encourage you to use this incident as an opportunity to have an open conversation with your child about what is not permitted on school property. Remind them to promptly report any safety concerns to an adult. By working together, we can ensure the continued safety and well-being of our students and staff.
