A 14-year-old who authorities said had a pellet gun inside Scott High School has been taken into custody without anyone being injured.

Lt. Mark King, a spokesman for Toledo police, said teachers did what they were supposed to do inside the school early today. The teenager, who had the weapon outside of a bag, was eventually isolated and brought to a first-floor hallway.

Scott High School is located on Collingwood Boulevard in the Old West End.

Lieutenant King said Toledo police made contact with the student via negotiators. School officials said the teenager will face immediate expulsion.
