San Antonio police were dispatched to an unsettling scene at Glenoaks Elementary School early Thursday morning following reports of a body found on the campus located on Newcome Drive, near Wurzbach Road. The discovery prompted swift action as officers cordoned off areas around the school, heavily marking them with police tape to contain the scene, KENS 5 reported.
Authorities arrived just after 7 a.m., and the Northside Independent School District (NISD) has since affirmed that, despite the ongoing investigation, the campus is secure. According to FOX San Antonio, a statement has been issued by district officials claiming that "information is being gathered and more will be forthcoming," indicating that an active inquiry is in progress.
Besides the confirmation of a body being found, the details surrounding the nature of the incident remain scarce, and an atmosphere of cautious vigilance pervades the community as parents and residents await further disclosures. Classes have, however, continued within the school with students seen entering the building, excluding the specific area under investigation, ensuring that education persists amidst uncertainty.
Reassurances have been offered to the public, emphasizing that students are out of harm's way during this time. "No students are in any danger," SAPD officials stressed in their communication with the public, a point both the district, and law enforcement are keen on upholding. As more information unfolds, officials, from both NISD and SAPD who are collaborating on this case, are expected to provide updates on the situation. In the meanwhile, the presence of law enforcement remains pronounced, as they meticulously traverse the convergence of routine school life with the seriousness of their investigative duties, according to KENS 5.
