Two South Florida Schools Face Lockdowns Days Apart, Threats Unfounded

BROWARD COUNTY, FL (Boca Post) — Two south Florida schools faced lockdowns in the last 3 days, following two different suspicious incidents to which officials had to respond to and investigate reports of a weapon on campus.

Luckily, both incidents turned out to be unfounded, however, both instances caused panic among parents who were ultimately notified that something may have been going on at the schools.
