A ninth-grader at Skyview High School was arrested after making a false bomb threat that evacuated the school Tuesday morning, according to the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities received a 911 call at 10:17 a.m. from a Skyview student reporting that he had knowledge that a bomb had been placed at the school, the sheriff’s office said.
The school was evacuated as a precaution and the agency’s bomb squad was called to the scene. Deputies searched the school but found nothing suspicious.
Investigators further questioned the student, who eventually admitted the call was a prank. The student, whose name was not released, was arrested on suspicion of making a bomb threat and disruption of school activities.
