A lockdown is a response to an active threat and in this situation the threat was over and the hold continued for approximately 40 minutes," Lexmond said. "A hold is a response to a medical or safety emergency where halls need to remain clear until the emergency is resolved. The lockdown was changed to a hold after 30 minutes, according to Lexmond. "Students and staff responded to the situation exactly as we expected and things were calm," he said. Lexmond said he went to the school to provide "additional supervision and support." Lexmond said the school was placed on lockdown and that West Allis police were contacted. The individual with the taser fled the building once confronted by an administrator." "One of the outside individuals was in possession of a taser and did deploy the taser at one of the students originally involved in the fight. "These relatives are not parents as some rumors suggest," Lexmond said in a letter sent to parents Tuesday. West Allis-West Milwaukee School District Superintendent Marty Lexmond said the two adults involved in the incident were relatives of one of the students. Police continue to investigate, and a determination about the types of charges will be made once the investigation is complete, police said. They are also attempting to identify and locate the two adults. Police arrested the 14-year-old on suspicion of battery and are searching for the 15-year-old. The 15-year-old and the adults left the building before officers got there, police said. The women found the 14-year-old in the hallway of the school and reportedly punched and "tased" her, police said. Shortly after the fight ended, police said two women associated with the 15-year-old arrived and were allowed into the school building by a friend of the girl. According to police, the incident started when two female Hale students - a 14-year-old from West Allis and a 15-year-old from Milwaukee - became involved in a physical fight.
