Santa Barbara City College spokesperson Jordan Killebrew reported that the two suspected assailants that gave rise to a campus-wide “active assailant” lockdown sometime after 3 p.m. this Friday have been taken into custody by officers with the Santa Barbara Police Department.
Killibrew, being in lockdown himself, was not in a position to provide more details. He did say that one of the alleged assailants was seen with a knife in front of the library. Under what circumstances, he said, was as yet uncertain.
SBCC issued a follow-up notification at 3:27 p.m. that the threat is contained and the lockdown has been lifted.
This is a developing story. Check back for additional details as they become available.
