Great Mills student Jonathan Freese told CNN on air that he was in lockdown in a classroom and that officers were in the school.

"I'm still a little shaken up," he told CNN via cellphone.

"I didn't really expect for this to happen. I do always feel safe, though, because they always have police at the school," he added.
