At about 12:45pm, on Friday, March 6, 2020, the CNMI Department of Public Safety received a report of an email threat sent from a Marianas High School student email account.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The school was then placed on lockdown. At approximately 1pm, federal and local agencies were on scene and ready to conduct an extensive search throughout the campus; this included the students and their classrooms.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
After a rigorous search was conducted no weapon was found and no suspect has been apprehended at this time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At about 2:53pm, an all-clear was declared, and the lockdown was lifted. Students were then released to their bus, parent, or legal guardians. Although an all-clear was declared, law enforcement agencies remained at the scene, to further assure the safety of the students as they made their way away from the area.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
DPS would like to thank the parents and guardians for their patience as the safety of the students were of the highest priority.<\/p>\n
