An officer working the game recognized the boy inside the stadium at the Friday, Oct. 14 Liberty-Easton game, police said.
Officers confirmed the boy was still reported as a runaway, and — as officers tried to speak with him — the boy became uncooperative and tried to run away.
Officers were able to safely secure the boy before he could run. During this time, officers saw a loaded handgun concealed in his waist band.
The boy is charged with:
- Possession of a Weapon on School Property
- Person not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms
- Firearms not to be carried with a license
- Resisting arrest or other law enforcement
The juvenile was being held at the Northampton County Juvenile Justice Center.
