Swatting calls cause lockdowns in Southern California

A rise in swatting calls has led to lockdowns at several locations in Southern California, including Claremont McKenna College and Loma Linda University Children's Hospital. These calls falsely reported threats, prompting police responses. Last Thursday, Claremont McKenna College went into lockdown after a 911 call claimed there was a bomb and an active shooter on campus. Police found no evidence of a threat. The day before, Loma Linda Children's Hospital was also locked down due to a report of an armed individual. Authorities confirmed both incidents were swatting calls. Investigations are ongoing to find any suspects.
