The 18-year-old Salem High School student was arrested Friday, April 1 after his brother, a student at John Fenwick Academy in the Salem district, also came to school unknowingly with a handgun.

The child apparently found the .38-caliber revolver in his bag during class in Salem City and told his teacher last week.

The older brother was charged with unlawful possession of both handguns, possession of a high-capacity ammunition magazine and possession of a firearm in an educational facility, the outlet said.
