Iron Horse Threatened, Deemed Not Credible: SRVUSD
San Ramon police will remain on campus Tuesday and Wednesday following the lifting of secure campus restrictions.
SAN RAMON, CA — Iron Horse Middle School instituted secure campus restrictions Tuesday following threats of gun violence, according to the San Ramon Valley Unified School District. San Ramon police later deemed the threats non-credible.
Early Tuesday, SRVUSD administration were made aware of threats, and called in police to investigate. They also instituted a secure campus, meaning that instruction continues, but no new visitors are allowed into the school perimeter. The secure campus was lifted at around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday after police said there was no information to suggest the threat was credible, according to SRVUSD spokesperson Ilana Israel Samuels.
Officers will remain on-campus Tuesday and Wednesday, and extra district staff will be on campus Tuesday, Samuels said.
In recent years, threats have been called into Cal High, Pine Valley Middle School, Quail Run Elementary School, and Coyote Creek Elementary School. All were eventually deemed non-credible.
