Police said on Sunday, someone sent an email containing a “specific threat of violence” against Nashua North and South high schools. Officials canceled Monday classes for all city public schools. Other local schools also closed.

Police searched both school high schools and deemed the threat was not credible. No arrests were announced as of Tuesday morning.

The FBI is investigating.

CNN quoted a law enforcement official as saying the suspect is likely local and demanded payment from authorities.

Nashua schools Superintendent Mark Conrad said there be an increased police presence at schools on Tuesday.

“I have every confidence that our schools are safe, and we look forward to the return of our students and staff tomorrow,” Conrad said in a statement.
