WAHPETON, N.D. (AP) - A pistol shell found on a classroom floor led to a lockdown at Wahpeton High School.

Superintendent Rick Jacobson called it a “working” lockdown - students continued classroom work as usual but no one was allowed in or out of the building Tuesday afternoon.

Jacobson tells The Daily News that officials think the shell might have fallen out of a student’s pocket. They determined there was no danger to anyone in the school and lifted the lockdown about an hour later.
