SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A two hour lockdown was lifted at the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts Monday evening after report was made to authorities of a man seen with a weapon nearby.

San Diego police officers investigated a school threat that was called in at about 3:15 p.m. in the Bay Terraces neighborhood. The lockdown was lifted at about 5:23 p.m. 

Police said they received reports of a man walking back and forth on a balcony on Alta View Drive facing the school with what appeared to be some type of airsoft gun.

Nobody has been injured during the incident, according to San Diego police.

SKY10 was flying above the incident and captured two people coming out of the home with their hands up.

Details are still emerging and it's unclear at this point if someone was taken into custody.
