A bomb forced the evacuation of the Indian River High School as police descend on the facility to investigate multiple threats made against Delaware schools.

The Salisbury Daily Times reports that Delaware State Police arrived at the school after bomb threats made against the high school and Seaford Middle School just before 10 a.m.

As of late this morning searches were being conducted by state police.

The paper also reports there were similar threats made against Caesar Rodney High School which also evacuated students for around 45 minutes.

Nothing was found at the school.
