Thankful for the students who come forward to report what was going on and they have the student in custody. Thank goodness no one was hurt and this situation was taken seriously. Prayers for the families involved in this situation.

Parents should be held accountable for allowing the student to have access to guns

Good for students knowing to do the right thing by reporting this! Thankful for law enforcement's response. Awesome!

Randolph County PRO Deputies and WVSP Troopers responded to a call that a student had brought a firearm on the bus and then to TVHS. The information came late in the afternoon around the end of the school day after students had left for the day. An investigation was then started on the case by Sgt Danny Pennington, Cpl. Ethan Carr and Deputy Rocky Hebb. The Investigation revealed an area of interest where a search was conducted by The State Police. The continued search resulted in a loaded 45 caliber firearm being located in a backpack. Multiple statements where collected and later last evening a juvenile was taken into custody. The juvenile was transported to an emergency detention hearing in Randolph County Circuit Court. After a hearing the juvenile was transported by Deputy James Wolfe of the Sheriff’s Office to a juvenile facility in the state. I would like to thank my Deputies, State Police Troopers, school officials, Randolph County Prosecutor Michael Parker and Randolph County Circuit Judge David Wilmoth for their quick response to our investigation. I would especially like to thank the students who quickly reported this incident to officials which resulted in a swift, safe resolution to the situation. Our continued goal is to provide a safe and secure learning environment for all of our students. Sheriff Rob Elbon. www.facebook.com/share/p/1B2oPruwB4/?mibextid=WC7FNe ... See MoreSee Less

I understand the severity of the issue but wondering if this student was being bullied and tormented since that’s an everyday occurrence in Randolph County schools and has been for decades? If that’s the case, I hope this child isn’t just thrown away in the system, as most are, without receiving the proper medical care and mental health evaluation.

Hold the parents accountable for allowing the student to have access to a gun

The Elkins area has to be the stolen bike capital of America. And you rarely see kids on bicycles anymore; just crackheads trolling around looking for something to steal. Good job by Corporal Carr on following up and making the arrest. You guys and gals in law enforcement stand in between the bad guys and the good people. Though it may not seem like it all the time, your efforts are always greatly appreciated.

This same man stole things from my property. He was seen there, but got away before he could be apprehended. He has been served with a No Trespassing Order. If anybody sees him on my property please notify the police.

well he looks proud of himself…

Looks just as idiotic as the ones that actually start using the stuff. How dumb can you be? I can see the scapegoat side of getting forced into it, but to actually use it? What do I know? I actually schooled side by side with General Schwarzkopf's daughter and we watched videos at school, of what stuff can do to you. Get an outlook! You can have the worst parents too and all you had to do, looking around an Army post, was a build a parent workshop and put together ideas of styles you would like to act like. Big Brothers/Big Sisters on post.

Lmao you all can't be doing me like that. I was eating! Nearly choked.

hes 67 so hes basically got life

The only question i really needed to know is: bad boys, bad boys, what you gonna do? What you gonna do when they come for you? And I guess hiding behind a few women isn't the best answer. 🤷🏼
