ONE DAY BEFORE ANOTHER SHOOTING ON ANOTHER COLLEGE CAMPUS, THERE’S A LOCKDOWN AT ESPANOLA VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL IN NEW MEXICO. THE LOCKDOWN LASTED SEVERAL HOURS THURSDAY BEFORE BEING LIFTED AROUND 4PM. BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE WERE NO INJURIES.
THE LOCKDOWN WAS PUT IN PLACE AFTER AN 18 YEAR OLD WHO USED TO ATTEND THE SCHOOL WAS FOUND ON CAMPUS WITH A KNIFE AND LOADED GUN. THE FORMER STUDENT … SONNY ROMERO … WAS IN THE SCHOOL GYM WHEN A SECURITY GUARD FOUND HE WAS ARMED. ROMERO LEFT CAMPUS WHEN OFFICERS TRIED TO QUESTION HIM … BUT WAS BACK LESS THAN A HOUR LATER, AND WAS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY.
IT WAS FOUND ROMERO WAS ARMED WITH THE KNIFE AND A 9MM GLOCK HANDGUN. THE RIO ARRIBA COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE SAYS A 15 YEAR OLD STUDENT, BOBBIE GUTIERREZ, HAD COMMUNICATED WITH ROMERO ON FACEBOOK AND INVITED HIM TO THE SCHOOL.
