Five dove hunters in a field across from a West Lubbock elementary school caused a lockdown Wednesday, Sept. 11, when their birdshot struck a teacher walking her children home.
The teacher, who was not injured, grabbed her two children and ran back into the school, which had already let students out for the day, according to a 911 recording police released Thursday, Sept. 12.
Numerous on- and off-duty police officers converged on the school about 4 p.m., where they heard several more shots, according to a Lubbock Police Department news release.
