Bubble gun incident resolved; girl, 5, back in school Thursday

MOUNT CARMEL — The 5-year-old suspended from kindergarten for shooting comments she made in reference to a Hello Kitty pink bubble gun machine will return Thursday to Mount Carmel Area Elementary School.

That was the word Wednesday from Robin Ficker, the Maryland attorney who represented the girl’s family at a meeting with Mount Carmel Area School District Superintendent Bernard Stellar, solicitor Edward Greco, the girl’s mother and two other family members.

“We worked it out,” he said, add all issues were resolved.

He considers the case closed, he said.

The girl had been suspended initially for 10 days, because she told two other girls standing Jan. 10 in a bus line at the elementary school that she was going to shoot them and herself with a Hello Kitty bubble gun.

The suspension later was reduced to two days and the reason changed from being a terroristic threat to threatening to harm another student.

The family, who requested anonymity, sought to have the girl’s record expunged and an apology issued to the girl who has not attended kindergarten since the incident.
