The school system in a North Carolina county is planning on putting AR-15-style rifles in emergency lockboxes in its six schools following a mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, earlier this year.
“We were able to put an AR-15 rifle and safes in all of our schools in the county,” Madison County Sheriff Buddy Harwood told the Asheville Citizen-Times about the plan. “We’ve also got breaching tools to go into those safes. We’ve got extra magazines with ammo in those safes.”
