From the Bayard Police Department: Juveviles Arrested in Seperate School -- Related Incidents
On March 5 and March 6, 2025, the City of Bayard Police Department responded to two separate
incidents involving threats to school safety, resulting in the arrests of two juveniles.
In the first incident, officers received information regarding a fight at Cobre High School. Additional
intelligence suggested that a weapon may have brought onto school grounds. In response, law
enforcement, with assistance from the Grant County Sheriffs Department, Hurley Police Department,
Deming Police Department, U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives and the New Mexico State Police we were able to conduct a thorough investigation. While
no weapon was found, a tactical vest was recovered. Out of an abundance of caution, the school was
placed on lockdown while personnel from Cobre Staff conducted a search to ensure student and staff
safety. A Juvenile was taken into custody in connection with this incident and charged with the
following:
False Imprisonment, 4th Degree Felony,
Aggravated Battery, A misdemeanor,
Assault on School Personnel, Three counts, A Misdemeanor.
In a separate case, a male juvenile was taken into custody on March 6, 2025 and charged with Bomb
Scares and Shooting Threats Unlawful. Law Enforcement takes all threats seriously, and swift action
was taken to investigate and apprehend the individual responsible. The Grant County Sheriff's
Department also assisted with this case.
We want to assure the community that the safety of our students and schools remain our highest
priority. We encourage parents, students, and staff to remain vigilant and report any suspicious
activity. Threats of violence, whether real or hoaxes, will not be tolerated and will be met with
appropriate legal consequences.
