DETAILS:

On May 8, 2019 at approximately 1030 hours, the Oxnard Police Department received a report regarding a student possibly in possession of a handgun at Hueneme High School. The School Resource Officer was on campus when the incident was reported. Additional officers responded and the campus was placed on a school lockdown while the situation was resolved.

During the course of the investigation, it was determined that a 17 year old student brought an airsoft pellet gun to school and at one point, revealed the pellet gun in the presence of other students. Prior to police contact, the 17 year old passed the pellet gun to the 15 year old student. Shortly thereafter, the 15 year old student was contacted in a classroom and found to be in possession of the pellet gun. Once the involved parties were detained and the pellet gun was located the lockdown procedure was lifted.

Both students were arrested for being in possession of the airsoft pellet gun on a school campus. The 17 year old was also charged with exhibition of an imitation firearm.
