Pleasanton School Shooting Threat 'Does Not Appear To Be Credible': Police
Pleasanton school officials asked anyone with information to come forward and said they remain committed to safety.

PLEASANTON, CA — Pleasanton police said Monday that they do not believe a vague school shooting threat circulating online was credible.
No arrests were made as of Monday evening, Pleasanton police spokesperson Teri Yan said in an email. School resource officers "will remain on campus to ensure the safety of the students and staff," she said.
The threats were posted to Snapchat and do not specify a school or any other details, said Foothill High School Principal Sebastian Bull in an email to families.
