No bombs found at Burrillville High School

Burrillville Police Lt. Kevin San Antonio said a search this morning of students’ bags at Burrillville High School did not reveal anything suspicious.

The search came one day after a note found in a bathroom at the high school threatened “there will be a bomb” during today’s scheduled parent-teacher conferences.

The School Department yesterday said that there were "significant criminal and school penalties" tied to making threats and that authorities would prosecute anyone involved with the note “to the fullest extent possible.”
