Mark Davis, a history and geography teacher at Concordia Lutheran High School in Tomball, located northwest of Houston, was arrested Wednesday. The teacher told police Davis said he would buy an automatic rifle and that he had a handgun upstairs, according to the complaint. The complaint says the teacher went to a school security guard, who found Davis carrying a briefcase containing a loaded handgun. The complaint said Davis told school officials he brought the gun to campus to “protect the kids.”Although Davis had a license to carry a handgun, the school had posted notices prohibiting people from bringing guns onto campus, the complaint said.
