OROVILLE, Calif. - A student was in custody Friday after surrendering to police at a northern California high school where shots reportedly had been fired, authorities said.
A Butte County Sheriff's dispatcher said a 911 call came in from Las Plumas High School just after 9 a.m. He said deputies were talking to the student.
About an hour later, the sheriff's office told NBC News the gunman was in custody.
A message posted on the Oroville Union High School District Web site said all six schools in the district were locked down during the brief standoff.
