During a sixth grade music class at Alexander Public school on April 15, a student produced an airsoft gun and fired it at another student. This incident is still under investigation and many parents have reached out to The Farmer to express frustration with how the incident has been, and is continuing to be handled.
 According to the Lieutenant of the McKenzie County Sheriff’s Office Investigative, Division Edward Martinez II, “A student did bring an airsoft pistol to the school and that pistol was utilized inside of a classroom setting. It wasn’t known until after the class period ended that the pistol was even in the school. Later on, the administration found out, ended up finding out who the student was, and later had that student come down to the office. They later found that pistol hidden within the school.”
