Earlier reporting below.

Daytona Beach, FL – 3 buildings are being evacuated at Daytona State College due to what school officials are calling a “specific” bomb threat.

All Monday night classes in the 200, 210 and 340 buildings have been canceled due to the threat, according to DSC’s Facebook account.

“Updates will be issued when more information is known,” the DSC Facebook message posted at 5:34 PM Monday stated.

The Daytona Beach Police Department is on scene searching the buildings along with members of the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office Bomb Squad.

This is the 3rd such bomb threat at DSC since the day before Thanksgiving that’s forced authorities to evacuate at least 1 building.

The other 2 incidents were cleared after authorities searched the 340 and 530 buildings and found nothing dangerous.

DBPD says both of those incidents featured a bomb threat and pro-ISIS messages written on bathroom walls. It isn’t clear yet if this incident also follows that pattern.

The campus is not on lockdown at this time, according to DSC spokeswoman Laurie White.
