People in Bennington have been talking about a teacher at the local high school because of safety concerns.

The teacher surrendered a semi-automatic rifle to police late last year and then he posted Internet messages that alarmed some in the community.

He’s been placed on leave by the school and he’s been getting mental health treatment. Now he’s telling his side of the story. He spoke with Bennington Banner reporter Dawson Raspuzzi, who joins VPR’s Mitch Wertlieb for our Friday Regional Report.
