POCATELLO — A local school was placed under a “hall check” after police were notified of a concerning social media post.
According to the Pocatello Police Department, they were told about the post on Tuesday before 8:30 a.m.
During the investigation, Century High School was placed in a hall check, which is an initial response to heightened awareness. That means staff and students are moved to a secure and safe place. The hallways are kept clear.
Officers determined there was no active threat at the school.
The school then returned to a regular schedule at 10:15 a.m., police said.
The investigation is ongoing. It’s unclear what the social media post contained.
Pocatello-Chubbuck School District 25 spokeswoman Courtney Fisher added the hall check was an extra safety precaution and that all students and staff were safe.
