Bronx Elementary School Locked Down After 'Nerf Gun' Scare
Thankfully the weapon in question turned out to be nothing more than a Nerf gun, according to NBC 4 New York.
Police told the New York Daily News the school was locked down after a student told another student that he was carrying a gun.
A school employee overheard the conversation and told the school administrator, who locked down the school, according to ABC 7.
A similar incident locked down Long Island High School about two weeks ago when someone called 911 after seeing a student carrying a lime green Nerf gun, NBC 4 New York reported at the time.
