US: A Pennsylvania schoolteacher whose 11-year-old son twice brought a loaded handgun to school has been charged with child endangerment.

Linnea Holdren (43) and her son were suspended from the elementary school in Shickshinny. The boy faces an expulsion hearing later this month.

A police statement said Ms Holdren told officers who offered to give her a gun lock: "I can't lock up his guns. They belong to him and he has a right to use them whenever he wants to." The boy showed the loaded gun to other children during recess.
