In what is becoming an all-too-common incident, a student at Kirby High is arrested for bringing a gun to school.

arrested when she throws him the TV remote control a bit harder than expected. After he complains, they get into a tussle, and she dumps him out of bed. Police come and arrest the woman for assault. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we can think of the perfect gift for the woman: bail.
Though he hasn’t yet announced whether he is staying or going, Grizzlies general manager Jerry West puts his Southwind home up for sale — for almost $4 million.
