CCSD: Foothill High School placed under lockdown after hoax bomb threat

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – Foothill High School was placed under a hard lockdown Monday morning after an “unsubstantiated” bomb threat, police say.

Clark County School District police placed the school under a lockdown out of an abundance of caution, according to a letter sent to parents.

Students remained in their first-period classes while police and K9 units conducted an investigation.

Police say the threat appears to be unsubstantiated at this time, and students will be released from their classes shortly.
