Grosse Pointe South High School lock down lifted after student claims to have weapon

Police in Grosse Pointe are at Grosse Pointe South High School while the school was locked down due to a student making threats.

That student claimed they had a weapon, according to school officials, but no weapon has been found. Another student claimed that the suspect had a gun in their backpack.

Police have given the all clear and the lockdown was lifted at 3:42 p.m. Tuesday. That student has not been identified as a boy or girl. Police are still investigating.

An earlier version of this story reported that a witness said a person had been stabbed at a market across the street from the school. That information was incorrect and we regret the erroneous report.
