GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – An investigation of the circumstances that led to a handgun being found outside of Green Bay Notre Dame High School over the weekend is continuing.
Police Captain Kevin Warych says the student who found the gun did the right thing.
“Don’t touch it. We want them to contact an adult so they can contact police.”
Warych says, in this case, the gun was not in the greatest condition, which may indicate that it was there for a while.
“It was very weathered and was probably outside for a long period of time given the condition that the gun was in.”
Warych added that the situation was still concerning because the gun was found loaded.
Police continue to see if the gun is linked to any crimes in the area.
“At this point, we do not believe that the gun was used in any crime, based on what we can find in our database.”
