BUCKEYE, AZ — Classes were canceled on Thursday at two West Valley high schools due to an investigation into reported bomb threats.
Buckeye Police Department said Thursday morning that a bomb threat was reported at Canyon View High School, and they were working to clear the campus "out of an abundance of caution."
A voicemail was reportedly left on a staff phone, referencing the presence of bombs on the school campus, which is located near Perryville and Bethany Home roads.
Students and staff were evacuated, and the Canyon View campus has since been cleared with no threat located, police said in an update just before 10 a.m.
Class was ultimately canceled for the day at Canyon View, as well as at Verrado High School, which received a "similar" threat.
"Officers are on campus assisting school officials in releasing students out of an abundance of caution," police said in an update about Verrado High School, located near Jackrabbit Trail and Indian School Road, around 9 a.m.
The search at Verrado High School is ongoing.
Parents and family of students at the impacted schools are asked to refer to communications from their "Remind" message system for updated information.
Both schools are within the Agua Fria High School District.
There are no further details on the incident.
