A Code Red alert involving a county school bus at Browns Chapel Elementary School had some parents, teachers and students briefly worried on Wednesday morning around 8:00.  James Evans with the County Schools told WGNS that a parent stopped the driver of a bus to let them know about a rumor involving an elementary child allegedly armed with some sort of a weapon. The rumor proved to be just that… a rumor. The student in question was searched, but no weapon was found. After a brief investigation, students were allowed to head to class at Browns Chapel after the bus arrived at the county school in question and the staff was given the all clear.
