Students make false claims about armed intruder

[noway2]

Didn't see this posted yet, but it's fairly new news: https://www.wfmynews2.com/article/n...ruder/83-d376039c-8e1a-4423-b1c1-74c843a9f48e

DAVIDSON COUNTY, N.C. — Students at South Davidson Middle and High School falsely claimed that an armed intruder was on property Wednesday, according to school district officials.
A group of students told a staff member there was an armed intruder on their school campuses. School administrators and law enforcement responded immediately, which led to a school lockdown ensuring the area was secure.

Investigators determined the statements were not true and could have been made to divert attention away from one of the reporting students who did bring an airsoft pistol to school.
There was no evidence that the student had any plans to harm students or staff with the airsoft pistol.

"one of the reporting students who did bring an airsoft pistol to school" - Doh - how can they be so stupid.

So...they falsely claimed there was an armed intruder when one of the kids doing the reporting was an "armed" intruder?

God I hate modern day reporters.

Technically, you are correct. If one were to commit an armed robbery with an airsoft and got shot for it, the shooting would be justified because it doesn't matter if the gun is real or fake, operational or not, what matters is the threat.

Adolescent logic: SWAT my imaginary frienemy in the hope that no-one will notice I need swatting.
