Eight-year-old suspended over key-ring
An eight-year-old schoolboy in the US has been suspended for taking a
gun-shaped key-ring into class.
Education chiefs in Green Bay, Wisconsin said the student was suspended for a
day because he breached their ban on carrying replica firearms. The key-ring
is about an inch-and-a-half in length.
The boy's mother said she would appeal against the ruling in an attempt to
have it removed from his record.
She told The Green Bay News-Chronicle: "It's a key chain. I think it's a
little extreme. How far will this policy go?"
Her son was apparently showing the plastic toy to his classmates when one of
them told their teacher about it.
