KENOSHA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A 16-year-old student is in custody after a loaded firearm was recovered at Bradford High School early Wednesday, Feb. 11.

School administrators and a Kenosha Police Department school resource officer tried to search the student at around 7:30 a.m., based on information he may have had a firearm, according to police.

The student would not comply and resisted the officer during the search, leading to a physical struggle, police say. The student was subdued and taken into custody.

A concealed, loaded gun was recovered during the search, according to police. No serious injuries were reported.

A lieutenant with KPD expressed gratitude to the people who came forward with information about the gun, saying in a press release that the information likely helped prevent "a tragedy in our community."

Police expect multiple criminal charges to be filed, and the investigation is still taking place. Officers remained at the school throughout the day.
