West Dundee police are urging teens to think twice about playing the popular “senior assassins” game after a participant scared people and caused a school lockdown this week.
Officers responded around 2:30 p.m. Tuesday to Dundee Highlands Elementary School in West Dundee after receiving a report of a person, wearing all black clothing and carrying a gun, approaching a vehicle in the pick-up lane shortly before school was to be dismissed for the day.
The school was briefly locked down.
Police determined the suspect was a Jacobs High School student who had a water gun designed to look like an M4 carbine semiautomatic rifle.
