UPDATE: A gun reportedly seen in the waistband of a student at a high school in Santa Rosa that sent the building into lockdown may have been a water pistol, police say.
A student at Montgomery High School on Hahman Drive called the police around 10:45 a.m. and reported seeing another student on campus with a handgun.
"The student reported the gun as being 'shown off' to other students, but it didn't appear the suspect was threatening people with the handgun," a Santa Rosa police spokesperson said. A school resource officer was already on campus, but more officers were dispatched and the school was placed on lockdown around 10:55 a.m. Police isolated potential suspects and searched several classrooms, but no gun was ever found, police said. Officers did find a fixed-blade knife with a black handle wrapped up in a Montgomery High School shirt, however.
