Second gentleman Doug Emhoff was rushed out of a Washington high school on Tuesday because of a bomb threat, school administrators and White House aides said.
Emhoff, who is married to Vice President Kamala Harris, was visiting Dunbar High School to celebrate Black History Month. He was attending a presentation at around 2:20 p.m. ET when Secret Service quickly escorted him out of the building.
Shortly afterwards, teachers and students at the school were ordered to evacuate while the threat was investigated. "We had a threat today to the facility so, basically, we took the precaution of evacuating everybody, as you saw," said Enrique Gutierrez, a spokesperson for D.C. Public Schools."I think everyone is safe. The building is clear."
Dunbar's principal, Nadine Smith, told reporters traveling with Emhoff that students had been sent home for the rest of the day.Download our local news and weather app
