LAURENS, SC (FOX Carolina) - The Laurens Police Department is investigating after a loaded gun was found at Laurens Elementary School Friday morning.

A staff member at the school found the gun in a classroom, according to Laurens School District 55 Superintendent Dr. Ameca Thomas. She said law enforcement was notified and arrived on campus in a matter of minutes.

Police said no threats were made against any student or staff and due to swift action by school staff and school resource officers, the situation is stable at this time.

In a press conference Friday afternoon, police said the 6-year-old boy brought the gun to school because he said he wanted to "shoot zombies."

The boy's grandfather, Kalim Abdul Alawajid, was arrested after police say they determined he was responsible for the boy gaining access to the weapon.

Alawajid was given a $40,000 bond during a hearing on Saturday morning.

I wonder if “zombies” is muslim code for “infidels”.

Infidels look much like Zombies to some.

Well, it has to destroy the brain stem - stops it from sending messages to the limbs.

I watched too many “Living Dead” movies in the 80s...

Thanks for the tip. I’m not up on zombie literature or films. In case of a zombie attack, I would be in quite a pickle.

Sounds like a French name. Or maybe Swedish.

Key words - school resource officers.

Thank God for them, the very people the Left has voted to eliminate (done or in process in Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and possibly Loudon city/counties).

Students, teachers/aides, and support staff are at risk in these leftist-to-MARXIST counties in Virginia and soon, DC.

“Police said no threats were made against any student or staff...”

Were there any students identifying as zombies? After all...this IS SC.

I’d be a goner too - since the zombies in today’s movies move a heck of a lot faster than the slow, dull ones from the 1980s. Today they run, jump, everything - probably much better than a middle-aged chubby like me...
