HENDERSON, Ky. (WEHT) – Officials with the South Spencer School Corporation (SSSC) say there were no reports a student found with a gun on the school’s property.

An email sent to Eyewitness News reported that a student was found with a gun, but SSSC officials have said that email was not accurate, and the source of that email is not known. Eyewitness News apologizes for any confusion our initial report may have caused to family of faculty or students at the South Spencer School Corporation.

Eyewitness News will continue to update this story as new information is made available.
