Threat Leads To Late Dismissals At Some HSE Schools, Juvenile Suspect In Custody

Four schools in the Hamilton Southeastern School System delayed dismissal Friday after authorities became aware of threats made by what was believed to be a student at Fall Creek Junior High, who was found and taken into custody Friday evening.

The four schools that experienced a 30-minute delay in dismissal were: Fall Creek Elementary, Fall Creek Intermediate, Fall Creek Jr High and Hamilton Southeastern High School.

The decision to delay dismissals was made jointly by police and school administrators, as officers searched for the suspect.

Police announced Friday evening that a suspect in this case has been taken into custody without incident, and has been taken to the Hamilton County Juvenile Detention Center.
