'Gunfight' text message brings police to school

A student initiated a text message at a Tempe High School in Arizona, reporting a rumor or of a gunfire to break out on campus; "If you have friends at Marcos, tell them to be safe Friday. . . . A gunfight may break out, and some people may die.".
The message spread like wildfire from there. Police are not pursuing any criminal charges against the student, Masters said, though school officials say he faces 10 days of suspension to expulsion.
