On Tuesday, January 28th, at 12:30 p.m. the school received an anonymous call from a female who claimed that a bomb was in her locker and would go off in 25 minutes, said Capt. Nick Odenath of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office. The agency is contracted to provide police services in Fillmore. A school resource officer was on campus at the time. Students were escorted to the Booty Sanchez Varsity Baseball Field as law enforcement officers investigated. The response included Fillmore deputies and a bomb-trained K-9 police dog from the Simi Valley Police Department. School Principal Keith Derrick posted updates on Facebook during the incident. By 2 p.m., after authorities deemed the campus safe, the school day continued as scheduled, the principal reported. The incident remains under active investigation, Odenath said.
