Spring Police Department confiscated the weapon and were able to identify the student who was then detained. They will face school disciplinary actions and criminal charges.

The school is in "hold" mode, which means students clear hallways and remain where they are until the all clear is announced. Adults are instructed to close and lock doors, account for students and adults, and continue with the day as usual.

All students have been reported as safe.
