Latest on Bomb Threat at Grosse Pointe North High School

North High School in Grosse Pointe Woods canceled classes Thursday morning after an anonymous threat that a bomb would detonate Thursday morning.

The school is expected to reopen at noon, The Detroit News reports.

In an email to parents, students and staff Wednesday night, Principal Kate Murray said the threat specifically noted a bomb would go off at 10 a.m.

The Grosse Pointe Woods Public Safety Department were making physical searches of the building and deploying bomb-sniffing dogs Wednesday night and Thursday morning to look for explosives.

Murray said that even with those measures, “there is no feasible way to search each person entering the building (Thursday) morning,” and the police department recommended the school remain closed until the time noted in the threat had passed.

The building on Vernier Road is expected to reopen at noon, and classes will resume at 12:24 p.m

All afternoon and evening activities are expected to continue as planned.
