What police now say caused the Alfred University lockdown was a game played by students with the kind of toys six-year-olds play with.

An Alfred faculty member reported seeing a gunman on campus around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday. Police investigators later realized that the gun observed was merely a Nerf dart gun.

More than 50 students were apparently playing a campus wide game of something called Humans vs. Zombies where teams split up and, using the toys, play a soft contact version of tag..

Team members wear red bands on their heads and their arms.

Students fear the incident will bring publicity to the university and the game.

The weapon.

I think most of you know this is my alma mater (spelling?)
