On Monday morning, March 2, the Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office announced that due to an unspecified threat, ACGC High School was placed into “lockdown” status while authorities investigated. Information on the source of the threat was not immediately released.
A Facebook post on the page of the sheriff’s department Monday morning stated, “At this time, there is no indication of an active threat inside the building. As a precaution, the school has implemented a lockout, and additional law enforcement presence has been established on and around school property.”
Later on Monday, the sheriff’s office released information stating, in part, “On Monday, March 2, 2026, at or around the time of 8:15 a.m., the Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to the ACGC High School for threats that two fifteen-year-old male students made against the student body and the ACGC High School Principal.”
The release stated that both juvenile suspects came to the sheriff’s office Monday afternoon but refused to speak with law enforcement. The two have been charged with threats of terrorism and will be transferred to a juvenile detention center.
