SAN JACINTO (CNS) - Mount San Jacinto College and other schools in the area were placed on lockdown today in response to a report of a man with a gun.
Riverside County sheriff's officials said they received the report around 9:30 a.m.
There were no reports of any shots being fired or any injuries.
College officials posted a notice on the school's website, saying the campus was locked down. People on campus were told to shelter in place, and classes were canceled for the rest of the day.
