Eugene, OR – The Eugene Police Department responded at 11:33 a.m. after receiving a report of a possible firearm on campus at South Eugene.

Officers immediately arrived and conducted a full, systematic search of the school building.

After clearing all areas, police confirmed that no weapon had actually been seen or located.

Authorities said the situation appeared to be a false alarm or misinterpretation of suspicious circumstances rather than an actual armed threat.

Some officers remained on scene afterward to maintain a visible presence and ensure continued safety monitoring while operations stabilized.

No injuries were reported, and normal activity was expected to resume following the investigation.
