RALEIGH, N.C. — A Raleigh mother was charged with a weapons violation Tuesday after officers found a gun in her car, which was parked on the property of her child’s school.

Raleigh police said Kristina Janel Rowe, 38, went to River Oaks Middle School after her daughter, who is a student there, said she was attacked by students on her school bus.

Rowe called 911 to tell authorities about the situation and either followed the bus or went directly to the school to meet with authorities. In her call to 911, she said she wanted police to meet her at the school so she could press charges against the other students.

While there, police said, she mentioned that she had a gun in her car.

Rowe was charged with having a gun on educational property.
