All clear given after bomb threat spurs lockdown at Ramblewood Middle School in Broward
FORT LAUDERDALE -- Officials said reports of a bomb threat at Ramblewood Middle School were unfounded after the allegation Monday led to an evacuation as a precaution, officials said.
No injuries were reported at the Coral Springs school, located at 8505 W. Atlantic Blvd., after the campus was placed on a Code Red lockdown around 9:30 a.m. Monday.
A spokesperson for Broward County Public Schools said the school was evacuated as a precaution while the threat was investigated.
Coral Springs police told CBS News Miami that a student came across a social media threat and reported it to the school prior to the start of classes Monday morning.
The Broward sheriff's office K9 assisted in the search but no explosives were found on campus.
Police said the probe into the matter is ongoing but no one has been detained.
Students who were not picked up by their relatives were allowed to return to class.
