A viral video from Ascension of our Lord Secondary School in Mississauga has everyone talking, showing two young guys throwing down in a hallway. Fist fight. One dude ends up on top, raining punches on the other's head, while classmates just watch. Then it cuts to the schoolyard, where it looks like one pulls a handgun on the other.
Police got the call about a dangerous weapon Monday afternoon, and jumped on it quick. Turns out there's been bad blood brewing between these students for a while, based on social media posts they've seen. Students and folks online are straight shook. The cliff spread like wildfire locally, and even hit international feeds.
Word is the school went into lockdown during the chaos, ramping up the fear factor big time. PO regional police confirmed the fight and the gun pull, but good news, they say it's just the BB gun, not the real deal. Investigations still early, no charges filed yet, and they're digging deeper into the feud. The school board hasn't weighed in, and while this echoes another gun scare at a nearby high school this month, cops say no connection.
