According to school administrators, law enforcement is reacting to a “credible threat” on the Chattanooga State Community College campus this morning.
Please stay in your locked-down state until further notice while this situation develops. Should someone be going through a personal or medical emergency, please let campus security know right away. I appreciate your cooperation and patience. We’ll keep you informed going forward.
Chattanooga State spokeswoman Nancy Patterson stated that the school is “on lockdown until further notice.”
A “TigerAlert” was sent out to Chattanooga State Community College’s instructors, staff, and students soon before 10:00 am on Thursday.
Lockdown on the main campus is in place until further notice. Remain inside. Enter the closest room, then shut the door.”
