Looks like they found a gun.
That’s what people are saying, yes.

* Boy! Have times changed! *
Even in the fifties it was not possible to live in a fifties sitcom. It is fiction.
I wasn’t in school in the 50’s but no one brought guns to school when I was a kid.
Just a reminder that this wasn’t a case of anyone bringing a gun to school but rather of a student being accosted, robbed a couple of blocks off campus.

When I read the first sentence of the article I too initially thought the crime happened on campus.
No, but we brought comics, and also a mythical idea of what it was to be a kid in America, white and straight. Rob and Laura Petrie were the stereotypical suburban couple then. They had their own bedroom, and they slept in twin beds. They slept in twin beds in their private bedroom. Their son’s origin story, Ritchie, has yet to be told.
We didn’t know Concord had that many police cars available.
@Jackon – Thats why I usually read to the end of a story. It wasn’t that long.
Ha! Then you should have read to the end of my comment where I wrote “initially”. 🙂
It was wild. Thanks for that alert or we would have walked right into it.
