Regina police arrested three youths in connection to a bear mace incident at a Regina high school on Friday.
Officers received a report around 1:10 p.m. that two students were being chased by two or three suspects who were threatening to assault them with bear mace, according to a release from the Regina Police Service (RPS).
Miller was placed into lockdown while officers investigated. The surrounding schools, Balfour Collegiate, St. Augustine School, St. Faustina School, and Thomson School were placed in Secure the Building Mode as a precaution.

The lockdown was lifted just after 3:30 p.m. on Friday and police said no one was injured in the incident.
