A Pahrump high school was briefly placed on lockdown Monday after a “student disturbance” that brought multiple sheriff’s deputies and law enforcement agencies to the school, according to the Nye County Sheriff’s Office.

Further details about the situation at Pahrump Valley High School were not immediately available.

“Please stay clear of the area. We will update shortly,” read a statement from the sheriff’s office, which had also been posted to X at 12:38 p.m. Monday.
