School locked down after bullet found
Grand Island High School went into “lock-down mode” Tuesday morning after live ammo was found inside the school.
A 16-year-old student told school officials he found a .270-caliber rifle round on the hallway floor of the foreign language department about 10:45 a.m., according to state police. Troopers brought in a K-9 and reviewed video surveillance but were unable to determine how the bullet got in the school or find any others.
The lockdown was terminated and the school was dismissed at its normal time of 2 p.m., according to police. An investigation is continuing.
