AUSTIN, Texas — Two male juveniles have been accused after reports of an armed robbery on Monday morning.

The Austin Police Department said the incident occurred on the 4400 block of Spicewood Springs Road. Officials said that reports that the incident occurred at St. Matthews Episcopal Day School are incorrect.

According to police, both subjects attended Anderson High School. One is in custody while another is outstanding.

The following letter was released to parents and guardians Monday:

Dear Anderson Families,

Today our campus went into Secure due to police activity across the street involving Anderson students.

During a Secure, all activities continue inside, but no one may leave or enter school buildings.

After Austin ISD officers determined that the area was safe, the campus lifted the Secure.

Please feel free to contact me at 512-414-2538 if you have any questions or concerns. As always, we appreciate your support of our students and staff at Anderson.

Sincerely,
Drew Nichols
Academy Director
Anderson High School
