Gun charges against an 18-year-old Western Branch High student have been certified to the grand jury for possible indictments.
Antonio J. Atkins was arrested April 4 after a fellow student told school officials about a gun on school grounds. Officers searched Atkins and found a .22-caliber handgun and ammunition, police said.
A grand jury will hear charges against Atkins for possession of a firearm on school property and possession of a weapon by a felon. A misdemeanor charge of carrying a concealed weapon was dismissed today in Chesapeake General District Court. Atkins, a resident of the 3300 block of Golden Oaks Lane in Western Branch, is being held in the City Jail without bond.
