WACO (November 19, 2009)—Waco’s Cedar Ridge Elementary School at 2115 Meridian Ave. was locked down briefly Thursday morning after a teacher saw two men fighting near the school, one of whom had a gun.
WISD and Waco police responded to the report Thursday morning.
The lockdown was lifted about 20 minutes later,
The teacher, who travels between schools, said she saw a man in a gold car chasing another man.
The man in the car, got out, and pushed the second man to the ground about a block from the school.
She told police she thought the first man had a gun.
Police searched the area, but found no sign of either man or a gun.
The school’s principal said the response was routine and said the incident was one for which the school practices.

k, G.... both of yours are college graduates now????? so how many years ago was that??? Not relevant TODAY!!
Sounds like a teacher that IS ON TOP of things, I would rather have her there, then a teacher who does not care enough to look around.
Sounds to me like some teacher got the "vapors" (as the old timers used to call a silly woman who was hysterical) and started a panic over nothing.
