According to Houston police, officers were in the area serving a warrant when they heard gunshots near the bayou.
As a precaution, the high school was temporarily placed on lockdown. No shots were fired on campus.
Officers drove toward the direction of the gunfire and saw at least three teenagers shooting into the bayou. When confronted by police, the teens ran toward the school on Antoine Drive near Acres Homes.
All three were detained in connection with the gunfire incident. One was later released without charges, police said.
The two remaining individuals are in custody with charges pending.
In total, four people were arrested; however, two of the arrests were unrelated to the shooting and occurred off campus.
As of this writing, the teens have not been identified, but Aldine ISD confirmed that at least one of them is an Eisenhower High School student.
Normal operations resumed at Eisenhower High School at 9:15 a.m. Additional officers have been brought in to provide security for the rest of the school day.
No injuries were reported.
The Houston Police Department, Harris County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office, and Aldine ISD Police Department responded to the incident.
