Trigg Students Arrested on Gun Charges

Two freshmen at Trigg County High School were arrested Thursday after a school employee found a handgun on campus. According to a Cadiz police report, Principal Shannon Burcham at 8:40 a.m. received a tip from a student who said that someone on the school bus spoke about having a weapon and was bringing it to school. Burcham notified School Resource Officer Dave Colbert, and the high school was placed on lockdown while authorities investigated the tip.
