Police are still investigating after multiple “computerized bomb threats” made to Barrington High School on Monday at first led to no lock down but then prompted an evacuation of the school.
Two Barrington Police officers accompany high school students out of the building as they evacuate Barrington High School following a second bomb threat at the school on Monday, April 17, 2023, in Barrington. Barrington 220 School District sent out alerts saying, ”Out of an abundance of caution, BHS is evacuating the building after receiving a second bomb threat… Students who walk or drive to school have been dismissed for the day..
Burke said the department has not made any arrests in connection with the incident Monday, but is aware of videos circulating online that appear to show a threat being made to the school.Burke said whomever made the threat used a “digital, computerized voice,” presumably to avoid being identified. At first, the school did not go into a lockdown. But after subsequent alleged threats, officials said BHS was evacuated “out of an abundance of caution.” After-school activities were postponed.
