NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A teenage student threatened another boy with a gun inside a public high school in Manhattan on Monday, police said.

The teen allegedly pulled a black revolver on his classmate in a stairwell at High School M560 — City As School on Clarkson Street in the West Village at 12 p.m. before leaving.

No one was injured, police said.

It was unclear whether the gun was loaded or what, if anything, provoked the threat. Their ages weren't immediately released by police.

The NYPD is now looking for the teen.

"The safety and wellbeing of our students is our top priority," said Department of Education spokesperson Jenna Lyle. "NYPD was immediately connected and is investigating the allegation."
