Comox Valley RCMP is investigating a threat that resulted in a precautionary lockdown at Mark R Isfeld Secondary School yesterday (Oct.10) afternoon.
Just after 1:00 p.m., Comox Valley RCMP received a report that a person was headed to the school with a weapon. Out of an abundance of caution, the school was placed into a lockdown.
鈥淭he investigation is still in its early stages; however, I can confirm that a youth has been taken into custody without incident and that there is no ongoing threat to the safety of students, staff, or the public.鈥� Said Cst. Monika Terragni, Media Relations Officer, Comox Valley RCMP.
The lockdown was lifted before 1:20 p.m., with classes resuming in the afternoon.
