DAVENPORT, Iowa (AP) — A jury is expected to resume deliberations on a 13-year-old eastern Iowa student accused of trying to kill his social studies teacher. Lawyers delivered their final arguments Tuesday in Davenport and the case went to the jury. The judge sent the jury members home around 4 p.m. and ordered them to continue their work Wednesday morning.

Prosecutors say the boy pointed a loaded .22-caliber handgun on Aug. 31 at Dawn Spring in a North Scott Junior High School classroom in Eldridge. It didn’t fire when he pulled the trigger because the safety was engaged. The teacher and a guidance counselor later tore the gun from him.

The boy is being tried as a youthful offender in adult court. He’s charged with attempted murder and two weapons crimes. (The Associated Press doesn’t generally name juveniles charged with crimes.)
