All-clear given at two St. Philip's College campuses after threat found to be non-credible

The campuses were evacuated around 1:30 p.m. before police swept through both.

SAN ANTONIO — An all-clear was given at two St. Philip's campuses which were evacuated Monday after a potential threat was made via phone call, according to school officials. 

The Southwest campus on Quintana Road, as well as the location along MLK Drive, were both evacuated out of an abundance of caution around 1:30 p.m.  A spokesperson for Alamo Colleges District said some high school students who were also on campus were bused to a different location to be picked up by their parents.
