Full Notification

Community members should avoid the immediate UC Berkeley campus area, where campus police have implemented a shelter-in-place as they look for a person who “may want to harm specific people.”
 
Based on direct coordination on campus, this incident does not appear to require that community members take action beyond avoiding campus.
 
We are monitoring the situation closely. We will let you know if events should change.  
 
For campus-related alerts, sign up for UC Berkeley’s WarnMe system, which sends out alerts. Berkeley Police alerts are sent via Twitter and Nixle.
