the officer, whose name was not released, was inside his office and was inspecting his department-issued weapon when it went off
would be reported as "NRA card carrying, homicidal, GOP supporting right wing nut, threatens hundreds of school children in a unconfirmed, mass shooting attempt gone wrong. "
The word disintegrated would have been replaced with a long description of the damage to the floor, building, walls, etc. and a discussion of the costs to repair, counseling for the kids, etc.the officer had removed the magazine, but failed to eject the round from the chamber. "One round of ammunition was fired, ricocheted off the concrete floor and disintegrated,"
There is only 1 or 2 acceptable reasons to unholster in a school- cleaning and inspection aren't on that list.
