Man charged in elementary school scare

A Virginia man who brought a sign reading “high powered rifle” into an elementary school has been indicted.

Claiming to be promoting a message on school safety, 33-year-old Christopher Johnson arrived at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Strasburg, Virginia just days after 26 children were killed by a gunman in Connecticut at a school with the same name.

He was indicted Wednesday and is charged with one count of disorderly conduct for the December stunt.
