In Police Blotter

On Friday, November 17, 2023, police responded to Cobourg Collegiate Institute for a report of a disturbance.

Police were informed that staff were working to de-escalate a situation with a student. CCI staff placed the school in a brief lockdown as a precautionary measure. The lockdown has been lifted, and there is no concern for the safety of students or staff.
