Bancroft OPP responded to a call about a potential threat at North Hastings High School this morning, but determined there was no credible risk to the school.
They said they responded to the school shortly after 8 a.m. after information about a potential threat circulated on social media, and their investigation determined the threat was not backed by evidence.
Police charged one youth in relation with public mischief.
The OPP said officers also responded to the school for a second time after reports of a student carrying an item resembling a firearm during a fire drill.
Police investigated and determined the item was a cap gun, and no actual firearm was involved.
A youth was also charged in relation to this incident.
