The campus of Los Angeles City College was on lockdown Monday after officials reported a stabbing incident that occurred on campus.
“CAMPUS EMERGENCY. STABBING INCIDENT. SHELTER IN PLACE,” L.A. City College tweeted just before 3:30 p.m.
According to the tweet, L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies were searching for an African American male described as approximately 5 foot 7 inches, weighing around 160 pounds, wearing a black shirt, white shorts, a black jacket and blue shoes.
College officials also said that students should “stay away from campus,” and that in-person classes scheduled for this evening were canceled, though online classes would take place.
