The school district police department said just one gun was recovered, but it was fully loaded.

Clay County District Schools Police Chief Kenneth Wagner said the police were quick to act.

“While the outcomes were not anything similar to what happened in the other parts of our country, because it was thwarted before it happened, but, it’s still traumatic to some students,” Wagner said.
