DAVIS, Calif. — Classes will resume as normal on Wednesday after bomb threats at some Davis schools, according to the Davis Police Department.
According to Davis Joint Unified School District, the district office, Davis School for Independent Study, Cesar Chavez Elementary School, Oliver Wendell Holmes Junior High School, North Davis Elementary School and Davis Senior High School have been cleared. Classes will resume as normal.
"Threats of violence have no place anywhere and the ongoing intolerance and hate that is fueling these threats definitely has no place in our community. We will continue to stand firmly united behind our community values of belonging and inclusion," said Lea Darrah, the Davis Joint Unified School District Board of Education president.
Schools in the Davis Joint Unified School District will have extra patrols on Wednesday.
"Davis Police Department will pursue every investigative lead to identify those responsible for these criminal threats. We know these incidents cause a substantial amount of concern and even trauma," the police department said.
The police department said it got reports around 2:20 a.m. of an email saying that bombs had been placed at several school sites including the district office, Davis School for Independent Study, Cesar Chavez Elementary School, Oliver Wendell Holmes Junior High School, North Davis Elementary School and Davis Senior High School.
The email also said bombs had been put at the homes of Davis Joint Unified School District employees. Two employees' residences were searched and cleared, according to the police department.
"These continued terrorist threats directed at our children, teachers and public servants are absolutely unacceptable. We stand strong as a community against this hateful, extremist behavior. Hateful words can have violent consequences, and we must hold ourselves accountable for our actions and their repercussions," Davis Mayor Will Arnold said.
The Yolo County Library, where previous threats have been made, was also searched and cleared according to police.
The Davis Police Department said the threats have some similarities to previous false bomb threats at the Yolo County Library in Davis.
The Yolo County Sheriff's office previously told ABC10 there have been three bomb threats reported at the Yolo County Library.
On Aug. 21, a bomb threat was called to 14th Street between F and Oak streets, near the Mary L. Stephens - Davis Branch Library. This was after a controversial meeting with 'Moms for Liberty Yolo County' which led to library staff booting them from the library.
