ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The principal of Sandia High School confirmed in a letter to families that the creation of an emergency shelter was prompted by a bullet found in a toilet on Tuesday.

The school went into shelter around 9:30 a.m. KOB 4 received several calls from people in the neighborhood and confirmed with Albuquerque Public Schools. At approximately 10:19 a.m., APS lifted the shelter into place.

Principal Camille Gonzales wrote that they received a report that a student had found a bullet in one of the restrooms. APS police then responded to the school and conducted what they called a thorough search of the campus.

During this search, the police found no weapons. However, they are still investigating what happened. As a precautionary measure, APS will also have an increased police presence at Sandia High School in the coming days.

“I would like to express my gratitude to the students who came forward to report this situation, demonstrating their commitment to the well-being of our school community. I would also like to thank our students and staff for their exemplary behavior and cooperation during the shelter-in-place. “Their adherence to instructions and patience throughout the process were commendable,” Principal Gonzales wrote.

The principal encouraged families to call the school with any questions and they are available to address any concerns. She also advised taking any threat or rumor seriously, reminding: “If you see something, say something.”
