LOS ANGELES (AP) — All schools in the vast Los Angeles Unified School District have been ordered closed due to a threat.
School district spokeswoman Ellen Morgan announced the closure Tuesday but released no further details ahead of a press conference at district headquarters.

The district spans 720 square miles including Los Angeles and all or part of more than 30 smaller cities and some unincorporated areas.
