Hard feelings at L.A. high school after lockdown

Some teachers and students atManual Arts High School in Los Angeles say they're still upset after a campus lockdown last week. They contend they spent up to seven hours with no official information or, in some cases, access to a bathroom or food after a reported gunman was seen on campus. They say they were not informed about the lockdown from school administrators and had to depend instead on their cellphones or classroom televisions for news. District officials say information about the lockdown was relayed over the public address system but that some classroom speakers might have been broken.
