Early Monday morning, March 7th, the Crescent City Police Department responded to a report of a student who was possibly going to bring a gun to Crescent Elk Middle School.
The Crescent City Police Department School Resource Officer was on scene within a few minutes of the original call and began an investigation into the source of the information.
During his investigation the Officer spoke with several students who were the original source of the information. It was quickly determined to be an unfounded rumor only and stemmed from an altercation during the basketball tournament over the weekend.
The School Resource Officer will be working with the Del Norte County Probation Department to continue this investigation.
