LEESBURG, Fla. -- Authorities were investigating where a first grade student got a bag of cocaine that he brought to school.
The 6-year-old boy was found at Beverly Shores Elementary School on Tuesday with half a gram of cocaine after a classmate saw the drugs, Capt. Ginny Padgett said. The boy said he either found the drugs while playing at his apartment complex or someone slipped it into his pocket, Padgett said.
"It's sad that you had a first-grader carrying drugs of any kind on campus," Padgett said.
Deputies were questioning the boy's family and friends. The Department of Children and Families also was investigating.
"Is he a victim and come across something bad like drugs that could have killed him or did he know what he was doing?" Padgett said.
