Police called after students sing Guns N Roses track

Police in Connecticut were called after students sang Guns N Roses' 'Welcome To The Jungle' over a school PA, and were let off with a warning.

Police were called to a school in Connecticut after students sang the Guns N Roses track 'Welcome To The Jungle' over a PA System. The three students were at the school after hours because one of them worked as a cleaner there, and they assumed the building was empty when they began their school wide karaoke session. But one teacher was working late, and she got edgy after a voice she didn't recognise delivered the lyric "You're in the jungle baby; you're gonna die". Thinking the lyric was a threat she barricaded herself in her classroom and called the police. Six officers and three police dogs showed up to find the three teenagers playing with the PA system. The students were cuffed for fifteen minutes but were let off with a warning to only sing unthreatening rock songs when partaking in late night karaoke in the future.
