 Investigators now say the man on the Campus of Saint Joseph's Oblate in Laflin did not have a gun.
   According to police the man was on campus for confession.
A teacher and nun thought he was wearing a holster and called police. 
   That set off the chain of events that led to a lock down and strong police presence on campus on Tuesday..
    It turns out the man was wearing a back brace.  He returned to campus later in the day and learned what happened.  It was all a big misunderstanding. 
    A news conference is underway. The I-Team's Andy Mehalshick will have more on this story
