SAN ANTONIO – An investigation is underway by North East Independent School District police after a student was found with a gun at MacArthur High School on Thursday, according to officials.

The student with the gun at the high school was alone in a hallway and “seemed to be acting suspicious,” according to NEISD police.
An administrator and an officer called him into a classroom and found that he had a gun in his possession, officials said.
No threats were made, and the student claimed he had a gun for his own protection for things happening outside of school, according to NEISD police. The student was later arrested.
