Pop goes the squirrel. School goes into lockdown. But better-safe-than-sorry… right?
Whew! It could have turned out to be something like this.
Police in Ohio said a high school was locked down for about a half hour due to the sound that resulted when a squirrel caused a transformer malfunction.
Columbus police said Brookhaven High School was locked down shortly after 8 a.m. Monday following the gunshot-like sound but the lockdown was lifted shortly after 8:30 a.m., when investigators discovered the sound was caused by the squirrel, WCMH-TV, Columbus, Ohio, reported Tuesday.
I’d hate to think what happens when some dizzy blond pops her bubble gum in class.
