SCMS student charged with having a knife on school bus

     A 12-year-old was charged with wanton endangerment and carrying a concealed deadly weapon Oct. 6. The Spencer County Middle School student, who’s name was withheld because he is a minor, was reported to police after an incident occurred on a school bus. Taylorsville Police Chief Toby Lewis said that the boy was allegedly using a paring knife to damage the bus seat in front of him.

    The wanton endangerment charge was in relation to the potential injury the student’s actions could have had on the students sitting in that seat.
