Published Wednesday, February 16, 2011 at 05:36 AM
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) _ Nebraska lawmakers will evaluate whether allowing teachers and other school officials to carry guns is a good idea in the wake of last month's fatal shooting at an Omaha high school. Sen. Mark Christensen of Imperial introduced the bill (LB516) after the shooting at Millard South High School. On Jan. 5, 17-year-old Robert Butler Jr. used his police detective father's handgun to fatally wound assistant principal Vicki Kaspar and injure principal Curtis Case. The bill would allow certain school staff to carry guns if they obtained state concealed weapons permits and the local school board approved. The bill would require support from two-thirds of the school's governing board. Also, students and their parents or guardians would have to receive written notice of the school's concealed handgun policy.
