Meanwhile, the school and the Durham District School Board (DDSB) clarified that the incident had nothing to do with the school.
“Hey @brooklinhs, you may have seen an Orange Air Ambulance landing at school earlier today; it was an emergency patient transfer to an ambulance, not related to anyone at the school. It is our hope that anyone impacted are safe and doing well. Stay Safe, Brooklin!” said a school tweet retweeted by DDSB.
