SALT LAKE CITY — A locakdown was lifted at Highland High School on Friday afternoon after police received an unknown tip.
The police department took to social media Friday morning to say that the lock down was out of an abundance of caution.
They said all students were safe in their classrooms and all exterior doors were locked.
Later in the afternoon, police said they did not find anything during their investigation.
After a very extensive investigation, we have determined there is no creditable threat associated with the tip provided through the SafeUT App. Throughout this investigation, we were in regular contact with @slcschools. Officers will remain at the school as a precaution. #SLC
