Sheriff&#8217;s officials said it was unclear if the call came from the school.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; \" id=\"theav-550097844\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4504301096758439\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4504301096758439\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5907184250\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Deputies swarmed the campus and conducted a room-by-room and building-by-building search while the school was placed on lockdown. By about 2 p.m., the search was concluded and &#8220;no evidence of an active shooter&#8221; was found, according to the sheriff&#8217;s department. No injuries were reported.\u00a0Students were being held at the school as of mid-afternoon, but parents were told to pick up their children at nearby Central Christian Church.<\/p>\n<p>An investigation was continuing. The telephone report of a gunman on the campus occurred nearly simultaneously with similar reports that led to lockdowns at two other schools &#8212; Mater Dei Catholic High School in Chula Vista in San Diego County and Bishop Diego High School in Santa Barbara.\u00a0Both of those campuses were also searched, with no evidence of a gunman or shooting.<\/p>\n<p>There was no immediate word on whether the reports were related. Santa Barbara police said the &#8220;false report is under investigation&#8221; at Bishop Diego High. The Chula Vista Police Department reported that the call reporting an active shooter at Mater Dei was quickly determined to be a hoax.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are receiving reports of similar calls in other jurisdictions and will be putting out more info about this hoax,&#8221; Chula Vista police said.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday morning, a similar &#8220;hoax&#8221; occurred at Hollywood High School, where police responded to a report of a possibly armed suspect and shots fired on the campus. That school was also locked down and searched, with no evidence of a crime found.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_110733\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-110733\" style=\"width: 996px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Lancaster-High-School-lockdown-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-110733\" src=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Lancaster-High-School-lockdown-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"996\" height=\"561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Lancaster-High-School-lockdown-2.jpg 996w, https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Lancaster-High-School-lockdown-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Lancaster-High-School-lockdown-2-768x433.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-110733\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Parents were told to pick up their children at nearby Central Christian Church.
