methamphetamine on the backseat. He gave deputies permission to search the vehicle.
Deputies found a gray messenger bag on the front passenger seat. Inside the bag,
deputies found an urn containing ashes. The end of a plastic bag was sticking out of the
ashes that contained ashes - and also had 7 baggies inside that contained methamphetamine

student, what was believed to be an air soft pistol hidden in his back
pack. The item was never removed from the back pack or displayed
to others. School officials and the Sheriff's School Resource Deputy
immediately located and removed the student from the school clinic. The student had not
entered any classrooms. Officials searched the student's back pack and located a CO2 pow-
ered BB gun and a small amount of marijuana.
These items were seized by the LCSO Resource Deputy and the child was im-
mediately suspended. This child's father was contacted to take custody of him and remove
him from school property. The LCSO has filed charges of possession of a weapon on
school property, possession of approximately 2 grams of marijuana and possession of drug
paraphernalia by sworn affidavit to the State Attorney's Office. Sheriff McCallum said, "I
am very proud of student who immediately reported seeing this. I know how much courage
this took. He set a true example for all of his classmates to follow." And, I would also like
to emphasize the phrase "if you see something, say something".
