Carlsbad schools briefly locked down after email threat

Schools in the northern San Diego County city of Carlsbad were briefly locked down Friday after officials received an email threat of violence at one of the schools.

The threat was quickly investigated and found to not be credible.

The lockdown was in place from 11:12 a.m. to 11:45 a.m., officials said.

Kelly Elementary School, where a man jumped a fence last year and began firing a gun randomly before being tackled by construction workers, is part of the Carlsbad school district. Suspect Brendan O'Rourke faces charges in the shooting, which wounded two girls.
