• At the Country Oaks Elementary School in Hendry County, Florida, two 10-year-old boys were trading more than Lunchables.
ClickOrlando reported that one of the boys had agreed to sell a handgun belonging to his father, who had recently died, to another for $300.
The gun was located under a shed in the boy's backyard, along with a baggie containing 74 grams of marijuana.
Both boys were arrested -- one for selling a firearm to a minor, the other for purchasing a firearm as a minor.
The seller's mom is a sheriff's deputy; she was put on administrative leave while the investigation continues. [ClickOrlando, 3/28/2024]
