WORCESTER, Mass. -- A teacher's aide in Worcester's public schools has been arrested on federal firearms charges for allegedly driving to New Hampshire with three students to buy ammunition that was later used in a drive-by shooting.

Thomas Currier, 53, was arrested Thursday on a charge of being a felon in possession of ammunition. Currier pleaded guilty to armed robbery in the mid-1970s and served almost two years in a New Hampshire prison.

Ammunition ... which was subsequently used in a shooting in Worcester on Feb. 2, federal authorities said.

"It is unconscionable that someone who is responsible for teaching and mentoring young students would transport them across state lines to purchase ammunition," U.S. Attorney Michael Sullivan said.

I think the US attorney should have checked first if criminals are used to teach our kids. But I guess that is not his concern, what is his concern is state lines and ammunition....
