| Boilerpipe Text | An Analysis of the Firearms Used in High-Profile Shootings, 1963 to
2001
Date: February 29, 2000
Location: Theo J. Buell Elementary School, Mt. Morris Township, Michigan
Alleged Shooter: Not revealed due to his age
People Killed: One
People Injured: None
Firearm(s): Davis Industries .32 pistol
Circumstances
A six-year-old at Buell Elementary just outside Flint, Michigan, allegedly
brought a Davis Industries .32 pistol to school and shot fellow first-grader
Kayla Rolland. The two children had reportedly quarreled the day before
the shooting.
How Firearm(s) Acquired
The gun was acquired illegally. The six-year-old took the gun from
a shoebox in his uncle Jamelle James' bedroom. The gun was originally
sold at a Flint, Michigan, gun store in 1999 to Stanley E. Mayo. According
to a police report, the gun was stolen from Mayo's home on December
6, 1999. According to police interviews, James purchased the gun from
Robert Lee Morris for $40 and a bag of marijuana. James was sentenced
to two to 15 years in prison for involuntary manslaughter because he
provided the six-year-old access to the gun.
