tudents and staff at C.D. Hylton High School, in Woodbridge, Virginia, will soon be released Tuesday afternoon after being kept in the school for hours after a gun went off in a classroom around noon.
Prince William County Police Chief Barry Barnard said at a news conference at about 4:45 p.m. that no one was injured after the gun was fired. Police originally said the incident was an accident, but Barnard said “we’re not certain” of that.
The school resource officer found and detained the student involved. Police said the 16-year-old male student has been charged with possession of a firearm on school property.
At the news conference, Barnard said the gun hadn’t been found yet; a little after 5 p.m., the police said via Twitter that the gun had been found and that dismissal would begin shortly. Parents can pick their students up in the Hylton parking lot, which has been reopened; buses will also run on their regular routes.
Police said school staff found a trash receptacle that had “damage consistent with a bullet striking it.” Bullet fragments were found in the ceiling; the round was thought to have ricocheted.
At the news conference, parents asked why they weren’t notified of the incident until after 2 p.m.; Barnard had no answer.
According to the school’s website, all afternoon and evening events have been canceled, and none of its teams’ away games this afternoon and evening will be held.
The school is at 14051 Spriggs Rd.
