SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (Reuters) - The students inside a barricaded choir classroom were huddled in the dark minutes after shots rang out at Saugus High School in Southern California on Thursday, when one them said: "I think I got shot." Students outside fled in panic, while those inside ran to safety in classrooms, as they had been repeatedly drilled to do. Pamela said roughly 35 students were holed up in Holt's small office adjacent to the music room for about 29 minutes before they heard police pounding on the barricaded choir room door. About seven officers then ushered the students out of the inner office into the choir room, with the students ordered to keep their hands raised to their heads. Students were taken by school bus to a reunification point at Santa Clarita's Central Park to meet their parents.
