Shooting at Arizona high school football game forces evacuation to auditorium

The game between Douglas and Carl Hayden in central Phoenix had to be halted when shots were fired outside the stadium

Gunfire outside a high school football game in Phoenix forced attendees to flee the field for the auditorium on Friday night.

The game between Douglas and Carl Hayden in central Phoenix, Arizona, had to be halted when shots were fired outside the stadium.

The PA system called out "Everybody down" to those at the game:

Everyone at the game moved to the Carl Hayden auditorium, where they were told to stay away from windows.

The game was eventually called with 5:22 remaining. No injuries were reported.

Three people were shot earlier Friday outside a high school football game in Ohio.
