America’s second biggest school district has been completely shut down today.

Every public school in Los Angeles has been closed today due to an “electronic threat” to “not one, but many schools”.

According to Sky News, every school in the district is being searched, with LA Schools Superintendent, Ramon Cortines saying:

“I can’t take a chance. I’ve asked for all schools to be searched today.”

The incident has come shortly after the San Bernardino massacre in LA, where 14 people were killed and 21 others were injured.
