HUMBOLDT — Humboldt High School was evacuated for the final three hours of the school day Tuesday after school officials found a written bomb threat.
The threat turned out to be a false alarm. A Kansas Highway Patrol bomb squad based out of Emporia, with bomb-detecting dogs, was brought to the school and found no evidence of bombs or other explosive devices.
The building was reopened to the public at about 4:20 p.m.
A note found in a third-story restroom at about 12:45 p.m. indicated a bomb would explode that afternoon, Humboldt Police Chief Brian Dillow said.
