False Alarm For Santa Monica College Gunnman

 

Police found no sign of a gunman or a victim at Santa Monica College after people reported hearing shots fired at the school.

The incident began when a female student on campus heard what she thought were two gunshots and glass breaking, said Sgt. Richard Lewis. The student immediately called her mother, who called 911, alerting local police. 

The campus ordered locked down and about 30 to 40 police officers were dispatched to the scene, including the SWAT unit.

After authorities swept the campus, they determined that there was no gunman in the area, Lewis said.
