Boulder City High School Receive Hoax Call About Shooting

LAS VEGAS – According to the city of Boulder, another false report of a shooting at Boulder City High School was received on Thursday morning.

Around 7:50 a.m., a fake call said there was a shooter at the high school. A tweet from the police department says that officers responded quickly and secured the site, finding “no actual incident or threat.”

Last December, a similar fake call led to a brief hard lockdown at Boulder City High School when the caller reported an active shooter was inside the building.
