A swatting call for a false report of a man with a gun near the Auburn Community Hospital led to a temporary lockout at the hospital on last night.
The call to police came in just before 7:30 saying there was a man threatening people with a gun on Cady Street, which is on the emergency room side of the building.
Police went to the scene and found out that it was a swatting call. The scene was cleared about an hour later.
