ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) -- A high school campus was locked down Monday and swarmed by police officers responding to a call that turned out to be students wearing camouflage and carrying mock rifles as part of a photography project.
The lockdown at Summit High School lasted about 30 minutes, on the fifth anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.
"We had a little bit of a misunderstanding this morning," said Terry Morawski, director of communications for the Mansfield Independent School District. "I don't know that I can fault anyone involved, but the timing was definitely questionable."
The incident began when someone driving by called police. The students were photographing themselves re-enacting scenes from the Vietnam War as part of their project.
Summit High School, which has about 2,800 students, is in the Mansfield school district but located in Arlington, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) southeast of Fort Worth.
