POLICE used CS spray on two school pupils after they allegedly brandished weapons at officers.
The force was called to reports of a "disturbance" between two boys, aged 12 and 13, at Greenock's Lomond View Academy on Friday afternoon.
Officers used the spray after the pupils allegedly confronted them with weapons.
The boys were arrested and will be the subject of a report to the Children's Reporter.
Inverclyde Council described it as a "serious incident". The school remained shut yesterday.
It is understood the boys were released later that day.
