Authorities say no one was injured after a Texas elementary school student fired a gun while on a crowded school bus.
The bullet struck the back of a bus seat and was stopped by steel inside the seat as the bus arrived Tuesday morning at Jefferson Elementary School in Seguin, about 30 miles northeast of San Antonio, according to Police Chief Jason Brady.
The bus driver then took the .25-caliber handgun from the student, Brady said.
