Police: Mom points gun at middle school students

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A Memphis mother has been charged after a group of children accused her of threatening them with a gun on Thursday.

Five students from Hamilton Middle School told police Ebony Wright pulled the weapon during an argument while dropping her child off around 8 a.m.

Police later arrested Wright at her home.

Wright told police her child was being bullied by the other kids.

She faces five counts of aggravated assault.

She is out on a $15,000 bond.
