A parent has taken a teacher hostage and is barricaded inside Castle View Elementary School in Riverside, school district officials said Tuesday.
The district was notified about the situation just after 11:20 a.m., Riverside Unified spokesman Justin Grayson said.
The door to a room is blocked with the male parent and a teacher inside, Grayson said. It was not immediately clear which room the man and hostage were in.
Police evacuated all students from the campus and began releasing them to their parents after 1 p.m. All students were accounted for, Grayson said. It was not immediately clear whether the man had a weapon.
Officials said students would be released to parents or guardians with property photo identification.
