By CBSLA Staff, CBS Los Angeles: LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — As part of their AP exam, computer science students from Dorsey High School crafted de-escalation scenarios, after they participated in the program, Building Blue Bridges.

"So they had a chance to experience and see the split-second decisions that LAPD or any other law enforcement officer has to make."
