A Maryland high schooler faked his own kidnapping during a Zoom class — prompting his teacher to call the police.
The 11th grader at Quince Orchard High School in Gaithersburg pulled the elaborate prank Thursday during his virtual honors history lesson, WJLA reported.
When the teenager turned his camera on, his teacher saw a man.
