MUNISING, MI— Schools across Michigan are dealing with threats since last week’s shooting in Oxford that left four people dead.
Thursday around 10:30 a.m., a hand-written threat was found in a bathroom at the Munising Middle/High School. City Police were immediately contacted, and both the Middle/High School and Mather Elementary went into lockdown mode.
Officers and school officials deemed the threat non-credible.
In a separate incident, around 11 a.m., Munising Public Schools was notified of a threat in a video a student had made. Police began an investigation into the video, resulting in a student being removed from school and released into the custody of a parent. A report will be forwarded to the Alger County Prosecutor’s Office for possible charges.
As a precautionary measure, Munising City Police remained at the Middle/High School for the rest of the school day, with school safety protocols in place.
