“The case remains under investigation,” said Police Chief Valerie Harris. APD officers arrested a Placer graduate, Francisco Evangelista, 19, three days after the incident and charged him with felony possession of a firearm on school grounds.

In the wake of Evangelista’s arrest, a report was circulated that a Placer teacher had hidden the suspect in a classroom during the search of the campus by police.

As of Tuesday of this week, the teacher was not arrested and was in his classroom doing what he’s paid to do — teach.

Bart O’Brien, superintendent of the Placer Union High School District, said his office is awaiting the outcome of the APD’s investigation before determining if the teacher did anything wrong.
