A parent has been fined after she left a pellet gun – which resembled a real gun – in her son’s backpack when he went to school in canton Fribourg.
She says she bought the gun in a toy store while on vacation in Kosovo – and didn’t believe it was such a big issue.
But it gave the boy’s teacher a shock when she came across it while on a school trip to France.
The court ruled it wasn’t been kept properly and had been illegally imported into Switzerland.
The mother was fined CHF 400 and the gun destroyed.
