North-east school at the centre of another knife-crime incident
With the death of 16-year-old Bailey Gwynne still a raw memory for many in the north-east, a boy has been charged after taking a knife into a secondary school.
The incident happened at Milne’s High on March 3rd, just days before a youth was convicted of killing Bailey at Cults Academy.
The pupil from the school in Fochabers has been suspended.
A Moray Council spokesman said, “We confirm that a pupil has been excluded after he was found to be in possession of a knife in the school. Police Scotland are investigating the incident.”
Police have responded with the statement, “Following an incident on Thursday, March 3rd, Police Scotland can confirm that a pupil has been charged.”
