Children on Easter egg hunt find guns instead

The Associated Press, April 11, 2004

FLINT, Michigan (AP) -- -- A group of children hunting for Easter eggs
Saturday during a church event found two loaded handguns outside an
elementary school.

Flint police said officers were called to the scene and also recovered
a
BB gun and a broken toy gun on the grounds of Gundry Elementary
School.
No one was injured, Sgt. Michael Coote said.

One of the guns discharged when it was dropped, according to a police
report, but it was unclear who dropped it.

The pastor of Ruth Street Baptist Church told WJRT-TV that one of the
handguns had a bullet in the chamber, and the other handgun's clip had
bullets in it.

"It's terrible that something like this has happened," Pastor Namon
Marshall told the station.

Coote said he did not know how long the guns had been in the park.

Police opened an investigation after confiscating the weapons.

"The State Department officially released its annual terrorism report
just a little more than an hour ago, but unlike last year, there's no
extensive mention of alleged terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden. A
senior State Department official tells CNN the U.S. government made a
mistake in focusing so much energy on bin Laden and 'personalizing
terrorism.'"
