Back when I was in high school, we actually had the police come because we set off an alarm! Our teacher had a key and the alarm code for the school, so he could let us in on weekends and holidays, and one Saturday, we were working in our shop, and the assistant principal came in to use the weight room. When he left, he armed the alarm for the whole school, instead of just the gym area. So, of course, since we were still in the building, we immediately set off the motion detectors for the alarm. The police showed up a half hour later, with guns drawn They were very surprised to see a bunch of students working in the auto shop, to say the least. They didn't give us too much trouble for it, though I think the assistant principal got a phone call...
