Charlottesville Police have charged two 13-year-old students for allegedly brandishing a BB gun at Buford Middle School.

The charges stem from an incident following a basketball game against Kate Collins Middle School from Waynesboro.

Several members of the visiting Kate Collins team say they were attacked when they were walking back to their bus after a game. Police say there were also reports that two suspects pointed handguns at the victims.

As a result, police say two teens face a felony charge of brandishing a firearm on school property and a misdemeanor charge of possession of a firearm on school property.

Due to their status as juveniles, the identities of the students will not be released.

Like I said before......These were BB guns. How about the CATEC evening instructor who shot himself in the leg in front of adult students and the school try to pass it off as shots from a Hilti gun ( concrete nailer). Last I checked those caps don't make you bleed! Maybe you should send a reporter to the WED. night 3rd year electrical class.
