WINTER HAVEN, Fla. (AP) — Law enforcement officials say a false report about a gun on campus caused a brief lockdown at a Florida high school.

All students and staff at the school are safe.
The Polk County Sheriff's Office assisted in the search of the school.
Police say further information will be released later.
