Meanwhile, in Jacksonville, Florida, a 15-year-old boy pointed a gun at a school bus near a school bus stop in a dispute over a $20 debt, News4Jax reported.
The teen, Kenyon Getzen, was taken into custody and is now facing a third-degree felony charge of aggravated assault without intent to kill. The news segment stated he did not pull the trigger, and no one was injured.
A student on the bus reportedly said that Getzen had come to collect money that one of the students owed him. Getzen attends school at Grand Park Education Center.
