Coachella Valley High School was placed on a brief lockdown Tuesday as deputes investigated a report of a student with a knife.

Deputies responded to the 83000 block of Airport Boulevard at around 9:10 a.m. Tuesday to the report, Riverside County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Sgt. Wenndy Brito-Gonzalez told City News Service.

“Out of precaution, the staff placed the campus on lockdown until deputies arrived,” Brito-Gonzalez said. “Deputies conducted a safety sweep and are still on scene investigating.”

By 11:10 a.m., KESQ reported that the lockdown was lifted.

No injuries were immediately reported.
