    BLUE SPRINGS, Missouri (KMBC) — Charges have been filed against a man accused of bringing a loaded gun into a Blue Springs elementary school.

Cory Adams, of Independence, is charged in Jackson County with unlawful use of a weapon for allegedly carrying a loaded firearm into Sunny Pointe Elementary School on April 16.

Police were called to the school that morning on a report of a disturbance involving a man with a gun

Officers found Adams inside the building near the front office after he had entered through glass doors, according to court records.

A probable cause statement says Adams allegedly resisted before being taken into custody after a “brief struggle.”

Police said they recovered a 9mm handgun from his waistband loaded with 15 rounds.

Police later determined the gun appeared to be a “ghost gun,” meaning it did not have a serial number.

A woman who called police told officers she believed Adams was armed and feared he was coming to the school to harm her.
