OCEANSIDE - Two Oceanside schools were locked down for a short time Tuesday morning after a student reported seeing someone with a knife, police said.
Sgt. Leonard Mata, Oceanside police spokesman, said officers checked the area and found no threat to anyone, including students and staff at Jefferson Middle School and the Clair W. Burgener Academy.
There was a landscaping crew possibly working with a knife in the area, Mata said.
The lock-downs at Jefferson at 823 Acacia Ave. and Clair W. Burgener at 707 N. Carey Road started just after 7:30 a.m. and ended about 7:55 a.m. Students were kept in their classrooms, a Jefferson employee said later.
"Everything went well," she said.
