Man On Lydiksen Campus Identified

PLEASANTON, CA — An unidentified man seen last Saturday on the campus of Lydiksen Elementary School was a contractor for a pest control company, PPD Sgt. Marty Billdt told Patch.

The man was seen on the school's campus Saturday. The school's vice principal, a PPD sergeant, and two PUSD staff searched and cleared all buildings on the campus. Vice Principal Jennifer McCullough notified families about the incident in a Sunday email.

The man was wearing a hoodie that covered his badge, leading to the confusion, Billdt said.

The day before, two federal agents from Homeland Security appeared on the campus, as verified by the PPD school resource officer. Billdt said the department still does not know why they were on campus, though McCullough told families that the visit to campus was not due to any impending danger to staff or students.”
