Student in custody following school threat

(KAIR)--One student is in police custody following what’s reported as a possible threat at an area school.

That’s according to a Sunday night social media post on the official Facebook page of the Doniphan West School District.

According to the post, the district, during the weekend, “was made aware of information concerning a possible threat to student safety at Doniphan West Jr./Sr. High School.” The threat apparently indicated that it would be carried out on Monday.

The Highland Police Department was alerted and investigated.

Details pertaining to how the threat was made have not yet been made public.

No information regarding the student has been released.

An additional social media post to the district’s Facebook page Monday afternoon said that the school lockdown was lifted, and the regular daily routine was resumed.
