Every school in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) was closed Tuesday because of what officials described as a “credible” threat of violence.
The bomb threat came in the form of an email sent to a district board member and tied to an IP address in Germany, a spokeswoman for the school district told Reuters.
“The school district received a safety threat that we’re in the process of evaluating and vetting … As you can imagine, we take all threats seriously,” Jorge Villegas, the assistant chief of the LAPD, said at a press conference Tuesday morning.
