The teacher at the Booth Free School in Rocky Hill took the words "You're in the jungle, baby; you're going to die" from the song "Welcome to the Jungle" as a threat, WFSB-TV in Rocky Hill reported.

Troopers used police dogs to search the school and found and detained three teenagers.

Once police were convinced that the teens, one of them a custodian at the school, were just having some fun with the PA system the three were released.

Booth Free School is a public elementary school in an affluent part of Connecticut between New Haven and Hartford.
