Bomb threat at Soap Lake High School unfounded
SOAP LAKE — A phoned-in bomb threat at Soap Lake High School Wednesday morning was determined to be unfounded after a thorough search of the building was done.
An unidentified person contacted the school about 9:25 a.m., claiming a bomb was in the Soap Lake High School building, according to the Grant County Sheriff’s Office. The building was immediately evacuated and the students were moved to a safe location. Law enforcement officials, emergency personnel, and school officials conducted a search of the building, but no explosive device was recovered.
A rumor of an active shooter at the school was also unfounded. Students and staff returned to the building about 1 p.m. The incident is under investigation.
