The gun was a small 9 mm SCCY handgun.
The youth said he had bought the gun the prior day. He said he assumed that it was stolen.
He was taken from the College Hill Courts to the Juvenile Detention Center.

A resident of Buckley Street complained that a neighbor was keeping a rooster locked up inside the home.
The resident said the rooster kept clucking and "making rooster noises."
There was a concern that since the units are joined that bugs from the rooster might get over to his side.
An officer said he could not go inside the residence, saying it "might be the neighbor's pet."
The complaining resident said he would try the McKamey Animal Center next.
