A school in the Upper Canada District School Board was shut down by regional OPP after police received information of a threat.
Yesterday morning, all buses and students walking to Vankleek Hill Collegiate Institute were diverted to Pleasant Corners Public School in Vankleek Hill.
Police and canine units searched the school for about an hour before determining that it was safe for students to come into the school around 8:35am.
After the investigation, police charged a 17-year-old man with uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm. The youth appeared in bail court yesterday.
