DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. (CBS News) -- A chemistry teacher at the Florida school where 17 people were shot to death was arrested earlier this week after authorities said he left a loaded gun in a public restroom, where a drunk homeless man picked it up and fired it.
A Broward Sheriff's report says 43-year-old Sean Simpson, who carries a concealed weapons permit, left his Glock 9 mm in a restroom at the Deerfield Beach Pier on Sunday. He told deputies he was returning to get it when he heard a gunshot, and found the man holding the pistol.
