WILLIAMSPORT - Williamsport High School was evacuated Thursday for the second time in two days after a bomb threat was found written on a bathroom wall at the school.
Deputy 1st Class Carl Witmer of the Washington County Sheriff's Office said the threat was discovered by a school employee in an upstairs bathroom near the school's main office about 9:30 a.m.
Students were evacuated and walked to an adjacent school, where they spent about three hours before returning to Williamsport High about 1 p.m. after police investigated the threat.
Nothing suspicious was found, Witmer said.
Witmer said specialized K-9s were brought to the campus from Martinsburg, W.Va.
"We're going to take them all seriously," Witmer said, referring to threats at schools. "We're hoping that today's incident was a copycat."
