From accounts, people think that it is one of the LOTE students with a machete.

Update:

The weapon seems to be a normal hunting knife, and the people threatened were 2 students who were outside of their classrooms at the time.

We are still in lockdown.

Also, everyone's Snapchat exploded with jokes about school shootings, people in fear, and ISIS jokes.

It was actually a machete, and they threatened 2 female students that were skipping class.

Yes. No one has been hurt, but they are keeping us in just as a precaution.

We've been in for over an hour, with no end in sight.

UPDATE: the man who threatened the 2 students with a knife has been arrested around 2 blocks from the school, and will almost certainly be charged with 'threats to kill'.

It turned out, it was a hunting knife that was used to threaten the students.
