In re S.C., No. A123371

Juvenile court's determination that the juvenile-defendant be a ward of the court and placed on probation after concluding that he was in possession of a switchblade knife is affirmed as Penal Code section 653k is violated any time a person carries a switchblade knife on his or her person, regardless of where the possession occurs.
