Several Atlanta area schools were placed on lockdowns Wednesday morning after receiving phone threats but then quickly reopened after officials determined the buildings were safe, according to school and police officials.
At least four schools — a private school in Brookhaven and public high schools in Atlanta and Cobb County — reported threats.
The Marist School, a Catholic school in Brookhaven, was locked down and then cleared after it received a phone call threatening “an armed assailant approaching campus as well as bombs on campus,” the school confirmed to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
“There was not an active threat, and we have just received an ‘all clear,’” Cristina Vásconez Herrera, Marist’s communications director, said in an email just after 12:30 p.m.
