Teacher mistakes Guns N Roses PA karaoke for death-threat, calls in the heat

A teacher working after hours in Roxbury, CT barricaded herself in a classroom and called in the police in force when she heard three teenagers (including the school custodian) performing a karaoke version of Guns N Roses’s “Welcome to the Jungle” (Welcome to the jungle/You’re gonna die”) and mistook it for a death threat. The kids thought they were alone in the building.

State police say the teacher at Booth Free School barricaded herself inside a classroom Wednesday when she mistook someone singing a Guns N’ Roses song over the public address system for a threat.

She was working after hours and thought no one else was in the building. Then she heard someone say over the loudspeaker that she was going to die.
