Sheriff Rob Maciol says a Deputy Sheriff assigned to the school district as a School Resource Officer, along with school staff, immediately put an emergency plan into action.

He says within minutes, additional law enforcement members and K-9's from the Sheriff's Office, State Police and Utica Police assisted with a complete sweep of the building and nothing was found.

Maciol says at no time were students in any danger and the investigation is continuing.
