Gwinnett County high school locked down over report of gun on campus
Aug 11, 2022
A Gwinnett County high school was placed on lockdown after officials say a gun was reported on campus Thursday afternoon.
Officials with the Gwinnett County Public Schools say Berkmar High School was under a hard lockdown most of the afternoon. Officials say no gun was found.
In a letter being sent home to parents, the district said two students got into a fight right before dismissal and another student said they saw a weapon.
“I want to reassure you, no one was hurt, and no weapon was found. The lockdown was lifted after 45 minutes once school police completed a thorough search,” Berkmar High School principal Durant Williams said in the letter to parents.
Police encourage students who see something that is out of place on school campus, to say something to a teacher or administrator.
