Jones, who shot school board gunman Clay Duke, runs the charity, which reconditions used toys and bikes for children.

WJHG reports that the auction ended 7:55 p.m. Wednesday with a winning bid of $13,100 from a Virginia man who asked to remain anonymous. That bid was matched by Brahmin, the company that made the purse, meaning that the charity will receive a total of $26,200.

Duke had stormed the meeting to protest his wife's firing by the district.

He asked all women and children to leave the room, but while Duke was ranting to the male members of the school board Littleton reentered the room, then dangerously tried to disarm him, fortunate to escape unharmed.
