Initial Community Advisory
Patterson High School is currently on lockdown following a report of possible explosive devices and an individual potentially armed with a firearm on campus. Law enforcement personnel are on scene actively working to ensure there are no threats to students, staff, or the campus. At this time, students and staff are on lockdown.
Parents are asked to respond to the Patterson Community Center located near Ward Road and Las Palmas Avenue for further information.

We’re excited to announce our Junior Police Academy, happening July 6–10 at Del Puerto High School!
This program is open to Patterson students entering 9th grade through graduating seniors. It’s a great opportunity for local youth to get an inside look at law enforcement, meet our specialty teams, and experience what it’s like to serve the community.

Federal Officer Involved Shooting Reported in Patterson
On Tuesday, April 7, 2026, at about 6:30 a.m., Stanislaus County dispatchers received a report from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers regarding an officer-involved shooting in the area of Sperry Avenue and Interstate 5 in Patterson. Deputies from the Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Office immediately responded to the scene and assisted in securing the area by blocking roadways. Fire and paramedic personnel also responded to provide medical assistance.
No deputies from the Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Office were injured or involved in the shooting.
Because this incident involves a federal agency and does not involve any local law enforcement as involved parties, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has assumed primary responsibility for the investigation. Detectives with the Sheriff’s Office Major Crimes Unit will be conducting an investigation. The closure of the Interstate 5 on and off ramps at Sperry Avenue remains in effect and there is currently no estimated time for reopening. We will provide an update once the road closures have been lifted and the ramps are reopened.
We are aware of the information released by Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons; however, we have no further details to provide regarding our involvement at this time. All media inquiries will be handled by the FBI.
Thank you to the California Highway Patrol and Caltrans for assisting with road closures.
