Toronto police say a 16-year-old boy has been arrested after he allegedly brought a gun to school Tuesday morning.
Police said officers were called to a school in the area of Silverview and Bowerbank drives in North York around 11 a.m. after someone reported seeing a gun.
Officers say they arrived on the scene, located the teen — who allegedly had the gun in his backpack — and arrested him.
Police later said the gun was a replica handgun.
