Norwalk News: Norwalk High Gun Hoax

#Norwalk CT–2/20–At 10:43am Norwalk High School staff reported an incident to the Norwalk Police School Resource Officer (SRO) assigned to Norwalk High School. Staff reported that a student had informed staff that the student believed they had heard someone pulling the slide back on a handgun in a men’s room within the school at 8:30am. At no time did the student see a firearm and at no time were there any threats made. The SRO and an extra duty officer assigned to a daily security detail at Norwalk High School advised Norwalk Combined Dispatch and immediately conducted a search of the men’s room and the immediate area. The officers did not find anyone or any evidence during that search. Additional Officers and Special Victims Unit Investigators responded on the scene.  Norwalk High School staff placed the school into Protect-In-Place status. At this time no students were allowed to leave the campus or their classrooms and no one was permitted to enter the campus.  Investigators conducted interviews, reviewed security camera footage and devised an investigate action plan. Part of the plan was a coordinated early dismissal of all students which commenced at 1:30pm. All students were dismissed to the bus line, to their personal cars or to their parents/caregivers at the American Legion on County Street, which was designated as the reunification location. Once the school was empty and with the assistance of the Stamford Police Bomb Squad K9 Unit, the school was searched for firearms however none were located.

At this time the investigation has found no evidence to substantiate the complaint that was received this morning. No arrests have been made and at this time none are expected.  Norwalk High School staff is in the process of conducting a secondary search of classrooms, lockers and bags.  Norwalk High School will start at the normal time tomorrow and staff will assist students with retrieving their belongings left behind today. We continue to encourage all students, staff and community members to immediately report all suspicious activity to us.  Our contacts are listed below.

Governor Can’t Agree With President On Gun Control

HARTFORD, CT – Governor Dannel P. Malloy released the following statement regarding an announcement made by President Trump this afternoon that he has directed Attorney General Jeff Sessions to draft regulations regarding bump stocks:

“Unfortunately, this has all the hallmarks of a classic bait-and-switch.  We need more than just regulations – we need to make this the law.  In Connecticut, we are going to pass a law banning bump stocks and we firmly believe that the federal government should do the same.  The language in the legislation I proposed this session represents a strong, smart approach to this issue.  I strongly urge federal officials, including President Trump, to take a look at our bill and implement similar legislation nationwide.”

Last month, Governor Malloy announced his intention file legislation this session banning bump stocks and other “rate of fire enhancements” in Connecticut through state statute.  That legislation is Senate Bill 18, An Act Banning Rate of Fire Enhancements.  It is currently pending in the General Assembly’s Joint Committee on Public Safety and Security.
