into lockdown following a hoax active shooter 911 call, targeting Eastern View High School. "There was NO CREDIBLE THREAT to Eastern View or any Culpeper County Public School," a statement from Culpeper County Public Schools read.
Town of Culpeper Police released a statement on social media at around 2 p.m., stating the sheri 's o ce was investigating a threat at EVHS, but that there was no credible danger. The schools were being put on lockdown until further notice out of an abundance of caution.
The statement received dozens of shares on social media once posted, causing parents and others to speculate about possible fatalities.
Moments later, the sheri ’s o ce released its own statement, explaining the investigation stemmed from an unconfi rmed report of an active shooter and confi rmed there to be no injuries.
About 25 minutes later, the sheri 's o ce began to release students from lockdown while EVHS students were relocated by bus to the Culpeper Sports Complex to board ➤ See Hoax, Page 15
