Several Brevard Public Schools and a private school were placed on lockdown for about an hour.

Classes at the Cocoa campuses of Eastern Florida State College and the University of Central Florida have been canceled for the rest of the day.

According to Cocoa police, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office received an open-line 911 call about a possible shooter coming to the campus.

A woman called and said she thought she heard gunshots and was hiding in a closet in Building 4. So far, that report is unfounded, Cocoa police said.

Authorities notified the school, and the Cocoa campus was placed on lockdown.

Investigators said they are searching building-by-building. No suspect has been located at this time.

University of Central Florida police said UCF's Cocoa campus, on the campus of Eastern Florida State College, is on lockdown in response to the threat.
