Bullet Shell Found In Boston Latin Academy
DORCHESTER (WBZ) ―
Boston Latin Academy on Townsend Street was put in "safe" mode Tuesday morning after a shell casing was found in a boys bathroom.
Boston police swept the school with a K-9 unit, while the students remained in their classrooms as a precaution.
Nothing was found and no one was hurt. Officials would not say if the shell was live.
"Safe" mode is a new way of declaring a "lockdown," according to police.
About 1,600 students attend the school in grades 7-12.
