FRANKLIN, Tenn. (AP) — A Williamson County commissioner is facing a gun charge.
54-year-old Commissioner Barbara Sturgeon is due in court next week after being charged with bringing a gun onto school grounds, which is a felony under state law.
The charges stem from a November incident in which Sturgeon reportedly carried a gun into a work session for the Williamson County School Board.
A spokeswoman for the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office said Sturgeon bonded out Friday after paying $5,000. She is due in court on Dec. 15.
