• An FBI alert about a month‑old social‑media post prompted a local search warrant, and officers recovered a pistol and other items depicted in images taken inside a school restroom.
• Campuses are closed Monday and Tuesday and through the scheduled fall break, with classes slated to resume Oct. 20 as the district offers counseling and reviews security protocols.
• Authorities investigated the teen's claim of others planning similar attacks in another state and abroad and report those leads are cleared with no current known threat to the district.
• Police say new online messages have been traced to swatting calls from Michigan, and parents are pressing for stronger safeguards such as metal detectors and sustained protection.
