"There's a big gang problem, it's a lot of fights that break out ," said Clancy.
Wellston P.D. Sgt. Marvin Berry said investigators are working to find out who exactly the suspects are and why they had guns in the school parking lot. He said he feels strongly that the parent who saw the men and officers prevented a possible shooting.
"Anything could have happened if she would have looked the other way," said Berry.
