MORGAN COUNTY-The Morgan County Sheriff’s Department issued a statement concerning calls made regarding an active shooter at  West Morgan High School.  This call coincides with calls made to Huntsville, and Lauderdale County Schools.
“Today, Tuesday, December 13 a False Shooting Call was phoned into schools in our area, as well as other areas in North Alabama.
School Resource Officers have been notified as well as school administrators across all Morgan County Schools.
While proven false, each incident is quickly responded to by Law Enforcement and Administrators.
At West Morgan, SROs were in the building and quickly determined it was false. The school was placed in a secure perimeter while Trinity Police Department responded and checked the campus.
Again, the report was false and originated from an Ohio area code.
Excellent work by Morgan County 911, West Morgan SROs, Trinity Police Department and school administrators. While false, all involved responded appropriately to address the alleged threat.
All schools continue to operate as normal at this time.”
