A student aide at Drexel Hill Middle School was arrested on Wednesday after police discovered a loaded gun and several rounds in his backpack. The school called police when a bullet was found in an employee restroom and turned in to school officials. The 32-year-old male aide came forward and claimed the bullet was his but initially denied having a weapon. However, a search of his bag turned up a loaded .40-caliber Glock and extra ammunition. He was taken into custody and will be charged with weapons possession on school property. His identify has not been released. The man is not an employee of the school district, he is an outside contractor hired to aid a special needs student. The school is located at 3001 State Road, Drexel Hill, Delaware County.

UPDATE: He has been identified as 32-year-old Domonique Jordan of the 10000 block of Chelten Avenue in Philadelphia's West Oak Lane section. He is an employee of Staffing Plus of Haverford and had been assigned to a special needs student in 8th grade for the past six weeks. Jordan has a concealed carry weapons permit and an Act 235 permit, but is not permitted to carry on school property. The weapon was loaded with a 17-round clip. He also had two fully loaded 12-round clips. Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said, "To go into a school with 1,200 1,300 kids and have a .40 Glock and 45-46 rounds of ammunition is absolutely insane."
