Florida's Silver Trail Middle School suspended an 11-year-old girl for six days for bringing a child's butter knife to school. Officials discovered the knife when the girl used it to slice a peach at lunch. The Pembroke Pines police department was called in to investigate the matter and turned over its findings to local prosecutors to decide whether to file criminal charges against the girl.
