A youth with a BB gun has been found in Cambridge after schools were locked down due to concerns about a man with a weapon. Cambridge East school told parents at 12.03pm they had come out of lockdown and all students, staff and people on site were accounted for. “Everyone did extremely well and responded to instructions.”Earlier, Cambridge Middle School said in an email to parents that the school was advised to go into lockdown because of an incident “at a neighbouring school”. “Please do not come to school or phone the school as you will not be attended to as your child’s welfare and safety is our priority,” it said. Meanwhile, in a text to parents, Cambridge High School said “because of police instructions regarding a local situation, the school has gone into lockdown”.
