Rumors that a Warren County Middle School student was planning to bring a gun to school Friday proved to be just rumors, although it did spark a notification from the school to parents assuring them the issue had been addressed. “There was nothing to it,” said Sheriff Jackie Matheny of the rumor that swept through WCMS on Thursday and Friday. The sheriff said once law enforcement was notified of the potential gun threat, officers were dispatched to the boy’s home where he was questioned Thursday night.
