Dixon Unified Superintendent Brian Dolan has confirmed that a Gretchen Higgins Elementary third grader took five bullets to school this morning. Dolan said the 8-year-old boy had “no intent to threaten or scare or harm anyone.” The child reportedly stole the bullets – a combination of 9 mm and 40 caliber shells – from another relative living in his home and brought them to school to show his friends. “The way this became known was that the boy actually gave one of the bullets to a second boy and that second boy gave his bullet to the teacher,” Dolan said. “I applaud that other student who knew that adults needed to know about this and spoke to his teacher.
