EULESS, Texas (AP) -- Officials cleared out a Dallas-area elementary school briefly Thursday morning after a second-grade student brought a deactivated hand grenade for show and tell.
Euless police Lt. John Williams says the student walked into his classroom with the grenade at Oakwood Terrace Elementary School. The teacher took it, placed it on a desk and notified the principal.
The school was evacuated until police arrived and inspected the object. Williams says that although the grenade still had a pin, it had a hole at the bottom and was empty -- the sort of thing that might be used as a paperweight.
No injuries were reported. Students returned to their classrooms after 15 minutes, and the unidentified student was getting a good talking to from police.
