Community members should avoid the immediate UC Berkeley campus area, where campus police have implemented a shelter-in-place as they look for a person who “may want to harm specific people.”

Based on direct coordination on campus, this incident does not appear to require that community members take action beyond avoiding campus.

We are monitoring the situation closely. We will let you know if events should change.
