Misheard lyric causes school lockdown

Updated: Saturday, March 2 2013, 12:14 AM EST
AMBRIDGE, Pa. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - A 90's TV show theme song wound up putting a high school on lockdown this week.

An Ambridge High School employee heard a portion of the lyrics to the theme for the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, when she called a student to confirm a doctor's appointment.

She thought that she heard the lyric "shooting some people outside of school."

The correct lyric is, "shooting some b-ball outside of the school."

She immediately called police, forcing Ambridge High School into a 30 minute lockdown.

Police say the 19-year-old student was in custody for 3 hours while searching his locker before determining it was all one big misunderstanding.
