Clovis High School is on lockdown Thursday after police received a report of a suspicious person and a shooting on campus, authorities said.
The Clovis Unified School District confirmed the lockdown, noting that while no evidence has been found so far, the measure was taken out of an abundance of caution as part of standard safety protocol.
Officers from the Clovis Police Department are on site investigating the report, police told GV Wire.
In a social media post, Clovis police said they received a report at 8:53 a.m. about a possible shooting on campus, but added that no injuries have been confirmed and no weapons have been found.
Authorities said the report may be a “swatting” incident, in which false information is intentionally reported to prompt a police response.
Clovis police said they could not provide additional details as the investigation remains ongoing.
