REGINA, Saskatchewan - Officials at a Christian school in Canada say an expelled 16-year-old student returned during chapel Tuesday and put a pellet gun to the pastor's head.
The principal of Luther College High School in Regina, Saskatchewan, says the gunman forced the pastor to read a letter about his expulsion. A classmate says it was about how the expelled student had been bullied.
Principal Mark Anderson says he got close enough to see the weapon was only a pellet gun, and grappled it away from the teen and held him until police arrived and arrested him.
Police recovered a pellet pistol and say no one was hurt.
