Lancaster County prosecutors have filed a juvenile court case against a 14-year-old who police say held a handgun to a girl's head near Lincoln North Star High School last week, according to court documents.
The boy got into an argument with a 14-year-old girl he knows behind a nearby convenience store around 5 p.m. Nov. 2, according to a Lincoln police report.
The girl told police he pulled a pistol from his waistband, walked up behind her, racked the slide and held it to her head, the report said.
After he asked others if he should pull the trigger, the girl pushed the gun away and left, but she didn't report what happened until the next day, when she told a North Star administrator, police said.
School officials then called police to investigate, the report said. Both 14-year-olds are students at North Star.
