Despite the alarming nature of the email, Fremont Police have found no evidence to corroborate the claim of explosives at any FUSD schools. The District, therefore, has not initiated evacuations or closures.
Fremont Police are actively working with federal agencies, conducting walkthroughs with School Resource Officers (SROs), and utilizing random sweeps by an Explosive Ordinance Detection (EOD) Canine for increased security and peace of mind.
