False Alarm Confirmed for Reported Active Shooter at Alexandria High School

Reports of an active shooter at Alexandria Monroe High School in Madison County caused panic and a heavy police presence at the scene. However, sources have now confirmed that the incident was a false alarm, and everyone is safe.

Somebody heard gunshots at the school and the school was put on lockdown. The “active shooter” emergency turned out to be a false alarm.

The safety of students, faculty, and staff is a top priority, and we commend the swift action taken by the authorities to ensure their safety. It is important to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities, but also to verify information before sharing it to prevent panic and confusion.

Panic and Heavy Police Presence at School

We will provide further updates on the incident as more information becomes available. At this time, the reasons behind the false alarm remain unclear, but we are grateful for the swift response of law enforcement and emergency services.

UPDATES: No active shooter in the building, but shots were heard close by. School is still sending kids home for the day.
