Police: Gun Discharged During Struggle As Oxford Student Taken Into Custody

OXFORD (WWJ) - The Oxford school district says one of its students is in custody, after he allegedly tried to grab the gun of an Oakland County Sheriff's deputy.

The 18-year-old student was being taken into custody Tuesday afternoon when he went for the deputy's gun according to authorities.

It's not clear yet why police wanted the student--or where they found the teen.

The gun went off during the struggle, but no one was hurt.

Parents in the school district were notified of the incident Tuesday via letter.
