High school students were thrown out the September 11 Memorial site in New York after tossing garbage and baseballs into the reflecting pools.

The students, from JHS 292 in East New York, hurled several items including plastic soda bottles and baseballs into the memorial pools, MyFoxNY.com reported.

The NYPD launched an investigation after one junior high student was caught trying to bring ammunition through a metal detector.

Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott said it was not clear why the student had bullets.
