Sources say Berkner High School went on lockdown this morning just one day after a gunman in Uvalde, Texas murdered more than twenty including nineteen elementary students.
Per one tweet a gunman was detained at the North Dallas area high school earlier this morning.
A school district spokesman said both the high school and Springridge Elementary were put on the lockdown status because of reports of an armed man in the neighborhood.
Berkner High School Details
The incident was initially described as an active shooter by some on social media, but that appears to have been completely false with no reports of gunfire or injuries.
Reportedly two armed individuals were walking into a local store near the campus which prompted the lockdown.
Richardson Police has not revealed any information about suspects or information on the person or persons detained. There is no word on change to school schedules in light of these events or those in South Texas.
There are questions if the subject arrested is tied to a number of recent antisemitic events in the area including Spring Valley Elementary.
Other Side Dallas will update as more information becomes available.
