Lockdown at Princeton - Lukily only a toy gun

The Ivy League campus was locked down for about a half-hour Wednesday after someone reported seeing a male with a handgun.

The school's Web site and alert system advised people around 11 a.m. to stay inside after a report of a male with what appeared to be a handgun near DOD Hall dormitory.

The Police were dispatched to PRINCETON, N,J. (AP) and after a thorough search of the campus. An all-clear was issued around 11:25 a.m. Police continue to investigate. Princeton University's Public Safety Department reported there's no gunman on the Ivy League campus.
Police say a gun scare at Princeton University began when four teen boys found a toy gun on campus. The boys were going through items discarded by students that moved out of the dorms.

Graduation took place on Tuesday therefore the campus was fairly deserted as several students already moved out.

We are grateful that it was only a toy gun and not something more deadly as we are living in an era where we cannot ignore these scares.

The boys are in custody for questioning but it is not clear whether they will be charged as they was only in possession of a toy gun and did not use it to commit a crime.
