Police: No more danger after 2 teens shot at Ariz. school


GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Two teens were shot today at a high school in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale but the danger at the campus was over, police said, as worried parents crowded stores nearby to await word on their children.

Glendale Officer Tracey Breeden did not disclose the conditions of the teens shot at Independence High School and said she did not know whether they are students.

She did not say who fired the shots but that there is no active shooter. A lock down was still in place after police and fire units descended on the school in a residential area.

"People need to know this is not a situation that is evolving. It has been stabilized and students are not in danger," Breeden told reporters.

No one can leave or enter the campus of more than 2,000 students until police ensure the school's safety and lift the lock down, Glendale Union High School District said in a statement on its website.
