DescriptionANNAPOLIS, Md. — As of now, it is against the law for Baltimore City School police officers to carry their weapons on campus, but legislators outside the beltway are leading the charge to fully arm school cops.

A senator who represents Baltimore and Harford counties introduced the bill. On Thursday, it received pushback from a member of the city delegation.

The police weapons bill comes almost a year after a school employee was shot inside Frederick Douglass High, a school where officers can't openly carry their guns while on duty.
