Dimapur, November 3 (MExN): The Principal of St. Johns School, Tuensang had a brush with death today after the father of a boy studying in the school threatened him with a gun inside his office. The man, whose son is a student of class 10, threatened the Principal and even fired a bullet on the floor that bounced and smashed a window pane into pieces. No injury was reported and the school has not filed an FIR with the police either.
