SOUTHBRIDGE (CBS) — The Southbridge Middle/High School was locked down Wednesday afternoon after students reported seeing a weapon.
The building was put into shelter-in place lockdown and no weapon was found.
Sources tell WBZ that a student was waving a stapler, and other students thought it was a gun.
A photo from a student that was sent to WBZ showed armed police officers walking through a hallway.
Police said all students and staff were safe and there was no immediate danger.
The school was cleared shortly before 3 p.m. and students were dismissed.

Were they a minority so they could get invited to the White House?
Ah, but was it a RED stapler?
Was it a high capacity stapler?
Kids aren’t allowed to see a gun so they don’t know what one looks like.
I wouldn’t want to be the cop who has to take the kid into custody. He’ll be working at Wal-Mart next week.
Ban assault staplers NOW!
When staplers are outlawed, only outlaws will have staplers.
And, regular as clockwork, making sure
no crisis goes to waste, the ever present
call for the banning of staplers has
been issued by the Paper Clip Institute.
I wouldn’t be a cop who would take a kid into custody when it turned out to be a stapler.
If they fired me, I would live in the area and make fun of everyone involved in the firing.
Loudly, in public, preferably at places they and their families frequent.
And for the next forty years.
Despicable paper clip opportunists...
assualt staplers - - -
Yep, those things can hold a 100-staple clip!
Good one.
“If they take my stapler then I’ll set the school on fire”
Obviously not a black or towelhead. Must be a Whitey. Otherwise, the kid would be on the “Dr OZ” show, and get invited to the white house.
We used to pretend staplers were phasers back when the original Star Trek was on. We used them to shoot the Klingons and Romulans who were writing on the blackboard.
