HOUSTON (AP) - A teen-
ager accused of taking an assis-
tant school principal hostage
earlier this week was charged
with aggravated kidnapping,
authorities say.
Harris County Assistant
District Attorney Elizabeth God-
win said the 14-year-old student
from Pasadena also was ordered
to remain in juvenile detention
until a Dec. 21 hearing.
Ms. Godwin said the teen-
ager, who was not identified
because of his age, was charged
Wednesday by the district at-
torney’s office in connection
with the incident at Deepwater
Junior High School on Monday.
The eighth-grade student is ac-
cused of walking into Grover
Belcher’s office, pulling out a
gun and holding the assistant
principal hostage for about two
hours.
