Six Bay Area high schools received active shooter threats on Wednesday.

According to KRON 4, authorities believe someone was "swatting," which means to make a false report to "elicit a response from law enforcement.” The following schools were affected:

  • South San Francisco High School in South San Francisco
  • Woodside High School in San Mateo
  • George Washington High School in San Francisco
  • Lincoln High School in San Jose
  • McClymonds High School in Oakland
  • Irvington High School in Fremont

Several schools were put on lockdown, while others believed the call had "no merit" or believed to be a "hoax."
