Police first arrived at the high school to serve an arrest warrant for a 16-year-old boy who had been wanted for a District Heights carjacking in late June, officials said. A school resource officer located the student around 11 a.m., Monday, Aug. 29, and found a gun in the teen's waistband, according to Prince George's County police.
Several hours later around 2 p.m., officers were alerted that a second teen was potentially armed with a gun, police said. Christopher Harris, 18, was located in a hallway and searched and a handgun was found in his backpack.
The 16-year-old has been charged with the original carjacking, as well as multiple gun-related charges including bringing a gun onto school property. Harris has been charged as an adult with multiple gun-related charges.
Both of these incidents remain under active investigation.
