Police charge boy, 14, for pointing airsoft gun at girl outside Dartmouth school

A Dartmouth teen is facing charges after police say he pointed an airsoft gun at a fellow student near their school last Thursday.

The 14-year-old boy allegedly pointed the gun at a female student while they were walking on a pathway near Ellenvale Junior High School.

Police seized the gun and two knives from the boy on Friday after responding to a report that he was possibly in possession of a weapon.

The teen, who cannot be named, was taken into custody and charged with multiple weapons offences and breaches of court orders.

He will appear in court at a later date.
