FIRE DRILL MASKS SCHOOL SEARCH

School kids were told it was a fire drill as deputies searched every room on campus. Evergreen Elementary School in central Bakersfield was placed on lockdown Monday after a threat was made against students, although law enforcement has declined to give any specifics. The School District lifted the lockdown around 1p.m., and spokeswoman Irma Cervantes says the kids were told it was it was a fire drill and moved outside as deputies searched every room on campus. Students were not released to their parents until police gave the all clear.
