Shots fired during Manteca High School football game; 3 suspects arrested

Three teenage suspects were arrested after shots were fired at Manteca High School on Friday night, authorities said.

The Manteca Police Department said officers received the call at 9:27 p.m. The shooting happened near the school's Winter Gym area while a football game between Manteca and Chavez high schools was underway.

Shots were fired into the air and no one was injured, police said.

Six Manteca police officers were already at the school because of the football game in the stadium area when the call came in, officials said. The game had four minutes left to go when the shots were fired, and the rest of the game was called off. 

On Saturday morning, Manteca police said two teenage suspects were arrested and a third suspect was outstanding. The third suspect was arrested Saturday night. 

The identification of the suspects will not be released due to their age. 

Authorities were asking people to avoid the Manteca High School area while officers investigate. Anyone with information is urged to contact the police department.
