NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev.-
Two schools were locked down Monday while police searched for a teenager who they said was spotted on a high school campus with a gun.
No students were hurt, and police said there was no initial indication that the teenager, who they said was not a student, had threatened anyone with the weapon, said Sean Walker, a North Las Vegas police spokesman.
The teen ran after being confronted by campus police as students were arriving at Mojave High School, Walker said.
A handgun was found behind a nearby church, Walker said, and both the high school and nearby Elizondo Elementary School were locked down while police searched the surrounding neighborhoods for the teen.
