"While I'm glad the lesson 'See Something, Say Something' is getting across to our students, it's disheartening that young people believe they need to solve their problems with a gun. Thankfully, in this instance, no one was injured or killed," Sheriff Clarence Birkhead said.
The lockdown has been lifted.
