A 13-year-old boy turned recess into an "electric shock free-for-all" with a stun gun purchased in Bulgaria, the UK Daily Mail writes

The teenager smuggled the illegal stun gun into the school, and went on a rampage, zapping three of his classmates with the device, which is capable of releasing 30,000 volts.

The pandemonium on the school's playing ground was halted when other worried youngsters alerted staff who confiscated the stun gun and called police. No one was seriously injured.

The boy, who was not named for legal reasons, was arrested on suspicion of possessing a prohibited weapon under the 1968 Firearms Act and suspended from the school.

His older brother, aged 17, said the teenager had bought the stun gun for GBP 15 while on a skiing trip to Bulgaria in February with their father and other brother, 15.
