5 shot during senior skip day water gun fight in Greenbelt, Maryland
2024-04-20
[WUSA9] GREENBELT, Md. — Police in Prince George's County are investigating after multiple people were shot in the Greenbelt area near Schrom Hills Recreation Center. Police believe it began as a senior skip day for students across multiple high schools in the area.

Investigators with Greenbelt Police say a group of roughly 600 people had planned the water gun fight in Bowie Friday afternoon. Bowie Police and Prince George's County Police dispersed the group, who made its way to Schrom Hills Park in Greenbelt.
Bringing guns to a water pistol fight? That seems excessive.

#6  On the other hand, the fact that there are ANY seniors in Baltimore schools says something. Sort of.

#5  When I was in college there was a game on campus called KAOS - Killing as Organized Sport. It involved teams trying to do hits with water pistols. Nowadays it would bring out SWAT.

Way back in the day, a few guys tried this at my high school. They were all docked a full grade for the semester.
