A dual enrollment student at Kendall Campus found a loaded handgun in a grassy area near the N building, according to a Miami-Dade Police Department<\/span><\/a> report.<\/span><\/p>\n

The gun did not have a bullet in the chamber, MDPD officer Gregory Roberts said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was honestly in disbelief,\u201d said 18-year-old Brianna Acevedo, who found the weapon. \u201cI was so unsure of everything that was happening\u2026everything just felt so surreal.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Acevedo reported the incident on Feb. 3 at around 9:30 a.m. She discovered the black .22 caliber pistol laying on the ground about two feet from a patio-style table she was sitting at next to building N before one of her classes at the campus started.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An hour before the incident was reported, a public safety officer noticed a 5-foot-9 inch tall white male with red hair and a beard sitting in the area where the gun<\/span><\/a> was discovered. The man\u2014who was wearing a white sleeve T-shirt, black swimming trunks, black and green sneakers, and a black cap with a fish pattern\u2014was \u201cacting strange,\u201d according to a public safety report.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the man was approached by a public safety officer, he asked the officer to use her cell phone. He said his phone was broken and a friend had taken his money and dropped him off at the campus, according to the report.<\/span><\/p>\n

A few minutes later, the student reported finding the gun. The area was searched but the man was not found.<\/span><\/p>\n

Roberts said the gun\u2019s owner has not been identified but the case is closed. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
