Northwood High School in Irvine is on lockdown Thursday afternoon due to an anonymous threat, according to the school district.
Posts on social media just before 3 p.m. indicated the school ? at 4515 Portola Parkway ? was locked down. An Irvine Unified School District official confirmed that to KTLA, saying an anonymous threat prompted the decision.
?A male subject called the business line of the police department and made verbal threats of violence on the campus,? the Irvine Police Department said on its Facebook page. ?Officers are working with school personnel to ensure the safety of students. Students are currently in the process of being released from classrooms one room at a time.?
No one has been injured nor has there been any suspicious activity on campus, police said.
