“Police are working an active shooter scene, and ask that if you are in touch with your student you ask that they remain calm and barricaded until police come to their room, this is for everyone’s safety. Do NOT call our 911 or non-emergency number unless it is an emergency,” Coral Springs police said on Twitter.
Footage from the scene indicates that police are collecting backpacks from the students escaping the school. The backpacks are piled up in the middle of the road.
