Police descend on Venice High campus after report of man with a shotgun
BY DAVID HACKETT
VENICE Reacting to a students report of a man on campus carrying a shotgun under a trenchcoat, Venice High School went into Code Red security status this morning, locking down the campus and calling in more than 20 police officers to investigate.
But nothing was found and school returned to normal around 8:30 a.m. Principal Candace Millington said there would be additional police patrols on campus the rest of the day.
Venice High School regularly has Code Red drills, but this was the first time the school has issued it for real. Millington said teachers, students, school security and police responded exceptionally.
Students were secured in locked classrooms within two minutes after the decision to go to Code Red around 7:30 a.m.
Venice police and Sarasota County sheriffs officers responded with weapons drawn and with search dogs. They first searched Venice Elementary School, then the high school campus. Nothing suspicious was found.
The student who made the report was being interviewed this morning by Venice police.
