At 3:21 p.m. Tuesday, the teacher called police to say he had lost sight of the person in Oakland.
In a separate statement, Alameda Unified School District Superintendent Pasquale Scuderi thanked police for their investigation into Tuesday’s incident, laying out a rationale for school leadership’s actions around the man’s intrusion and aScuderi also alluded to a separate incident Monday at the district’s Encinal school campus, explaining that a water bottle tucked into a student’s clothes and intended for use in a gym water fight was mistaken for a possible firearm.
“This is exactly what we teach our students to do, and we are both proud of and grateful for their quick thinking. Please talk with your students to make sure that if they see something they should say something, even if they’re not entirely sure of what they saw.”
