BREAKING Police responding to HOAX school shootings across northern Utah all morning. ALL reports have turned out to be hoaxes.

While all the calls were determined to be hoaxes, law enforcement still went through shooting protocols to ensure safety of students and staff.

"These calls are taken very seriously and are immediately looked into by law enforcement agencies," said the Utah Department of Public Safety."We ask the public to please stay calm as our local law enforcement partners have not verified the validity of these accusations and we are currently looking into the origin of these calls.""We will do everything we can to identify the person or persons responsible for this unfounded report. These are not pranks.

According to SLCPD, the FBI and other law enforcement organizations will be involved in the investigation into the calls."Police responded quickly and lock down protocol was immediately put into place. Police have swept the building and have deemed it safe," the Nebo School District wrote."We appreciate all who were involved in ensuring our children and teachers are safe!" the school wrote.

While a false call was made to Box Elder High School, the Brigham City Police Department checked and cleared all local schools for threats."There's been no actual violence at any of the schools that we've been made aware of," said the Roy City police. The calls come days after three children and three staff members were shot and killed inside a Nashville school.

It's almost like the children want the adults to do something about their safety. Stupid kids, someone should be punished. He said sarcastically.

Thankfully, but for how long until a mentally upset person of undecided gender decides it’s the schools fault and wanders in?
