Police Lock Down Dachau Middle School After Anonymous Threat Call

Police judged the call likely not credible following a search that secured the campus.

Overview

  • The anonymous phone threat, reported to Dachau police Wednesday midday, prompted a lockdown at Mittelschule Dachau-Süd on Eduard-Ziegler-Straße.
  • Officers contacted school leaders and told students to stay in their classrooms as a first safety step.
  • Police sealed off a wide perimeter, deployed many armed units, and searched the grounds, and they reported student protection secured shortly after 14:00.
  • A designated assembly point supported parents while access to the campus stayed restricted.
  • Authorities and local media clarified that the response applied only to the middle school after initial reports mentioned both the primary and middle schools.
