“They were having a snowball fight,” she says.”This group of guys was having a snowball fight and now a cop has a gun on them.”

The police officer eventually released all of the kids. Talk of the Sound says they were told that the police call reported that there was a gun on the scene, but the New Rochelle Police Department has not confirmed that.
