ST. GEORGE — Two 14-year-old boys are being investigated by St. George police for allegedly bringing a gun into a middle school and accidentally firing a round in the bathroom in October.
No one was injured in the shooting, which happened after school hours when no students or teachers were in the building, according to a spokesman with the Washington County School District.
School administrators and police didn’t find out about the incident for about three weeks.
The investigation began Oct. 19 when the school resource officer for Desert Hills Middle School received two reports from concerned parents about two boys bringing a gun into the school. The parents claimed that the boys were in a school bathroom on Saturday, Oct. 1, and a round was discharged into the floor.
