NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — A student at Fort Dorchester High School was detained Friday morning by a school resource officer after claiming he had a weapon, the North Charleston Police Department reported.
According to police, a staff member at the high school informed the school resource officer about the student who allegedly told another student he had a weapon. The SRO then went to the cafeteria to address the situation.
Once there, the officer found the student who matched the description given by the staff member. When the officer asked the student to remove his hands from his hoodie pocket, the student claimed he had a weapon, police said.
The resource officer then drew his firearm and told the student to lie on the ground. After doing so, the student was detained and no one was harmed.
A search of the student found no weapon, according to Dorchester School District Two.
“The district is fully cooperating with the North Charleston Police Department,” an email to parents reads. “All district safety policies and procedures were followed and will continue to be upheld throughout this process. The district has additional security and personnel to support students and staff throughout the day.”
BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT
At this time, no charges were filed against the student. The investigation remains active, police said.

Dawn Staley addresses ‘ducking’ with South Carolina basketball vs UConn back on schedule
COLUMBIA — South Carolina women’s basketball won’t play UConn this season, the first time in 11 seasons but will resume the rivalry in 2026 and 2027.
“It’s important,” Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley said Nov. 6 about adding the series back on the schedule. “We’ve been accused of ducking and all that crap. Like, come on, we played UConn for the past 11 seasons, now is time to duck? We could have ducked 7, 8, 9 years ago.”
It was announced on Nov. 5 that the Gamecocks will play the Huskies in Uncasville, Connecticut, on Nov. 24, 2026, at Mohegan Sun Arena in the Basketball Hall of Fame Women’s Showcase.
A day later, it was revealed that South Carolina and UConn will play in 2027 in the Ally Tipoff at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Staley confirmed that the reason why the series contract was not renewed for this season was because the Big East shifted to 20 conference games, which made it hard to schedule. UConn already had a non-conference contract to follow through with Tennessee and Notre Dame.
The online discourse that Staley referred to came after it was announced the two teams wouldn’t play this season, just after UConn beat South Carolina twice in 2024-25. The Gamecocks lost at home in February then again in the national championship game, both by more than 20 points.
“It’s a great competition for us and for women’s basketball,” Staley added.
Before the 2025 title game, Staley was undefeated in national championship games and had previously become the first coach to beat UConn’s Geno Auriemma in a championship game.
Staley, who is in her 18th season, didn’t win against Auriemma until 2020. South Carolina won four straight from 2021-24.
What is Dawn Staley’s record vs Geno Auriemma?
Staley is 1-1 against Auriemma in national championship games and 5-10 against him overall, winning four straight from 2021-24.
Overall, the Gamecocks are 5-11 in the series, which is tied 2-2 in neutral site games. South Carolina beat UConn in Columbia in 2024, part of its undefeated season that ended with a national championship win.
