Ontario students warned over senior assassin game after high school lockdown [Video]

After a lockdown was put in place at a high school and teens were arrested at gunpoint at the beginning of May, Guelph police are following in the footsteps of many police departments in the U.S. by issuing a warning to students about playing the “senior assassin” game.

“The popular game known as ‘Senior Assassin’ involves high school students competing to eliminate fellow participants by shooting them with water guns or other projectiles within a specified time period,” police said in a release.

The service then noted that the game is not just played during school hours but after hours as well.

Guelph police said one of the main issues is that the weapons used in the game often look realistic, which creates concern for others in the community, including some who are playing the game, and police can be called in.
