Police found additional weapons in the truck of a 58-year-old man being held in last night's Kanawha County school board shooting.
Richard Dean Bright's truck contained a rifle, a 45-caliber pistol with a laser sight and a 38-caliber revolver, in addition to several ammunition magazines, according to Charleston police Lieutenant R. E. Ingram.
Bright, a resident of Rand, threw two buckets of gasoline on two fellow school employees and then pulled out an A-K 47 assault rifle and shot a teacher who was attending the meeting.
Capital High teacher Karen Taylor was released today from Charleston Area Medical Center's General Division, after being shot in the abdomen.
Bright reportedly had been upset because some of the school board employees had been smoking around him.He had been on sick leave.
