Live Oak Elementary School (5151 Sherwood Way, San Ramon) was locked down for about an hour Wednesday afternoon after administrators received a report that burglary suspects were in the area.

San Ramon Police requested a precautionary lockdown around 11:50 a.m. after a home burglary was reported nearby, district Community Relations Coordinator Terry Koehne said. Two suspects were apprehended around and police instructed Live Oak to end the lockdown around 12:50 p.m.

Police initially received the burglary call from an address Longleaf Circle in the Dougherty Valley. at 11:08 a.m., a release stated. Officers detained one suspect as he exited the residence and the second suspect fled the residence. Officers searched the area and found the outstanding suspect in the 17000 block of Bollinger Canyon Road around 12:10 p.m.

Both suspects were arrested for first degree burglary and there are no outstanding suspects. The investigation is ongoing.

Students were dismissed at 1 p.m. per the regular Wednesday schedule but an afternoon kindergarten class with a 12:20 p.m. dismissal was held inside until the lockdown was lifted. Parents waiting to pick up their children were instructed to wait in their cars with the doors locked.

"Everybody did a fabulous job, the principal whole staff were so calm and did a great job in keeping students calm and alleviating any fears for parents," Koehne noted.

Other lockdowns have occurred within San Ramon Valley Unified School district, most recently in November 2012 when Stone Valley Middle School and Doris Eaton School (a private school) were placed on lockdown as a precaution during a police chase. Local schools were ordered to shelter in place in December following reports of a natural gas leak.
