Police presence is expected to increase Thursday at a Pico-Robertson school after a bomb threat was made to the campus, the Los Angeles Police Department said.
A rabbi at Yeshiva University High School received a threatening voicemail Wednesday evening from a caller who said pipe bombs had been planted around the campus, according to LAPD. The caller also said that a person armed with an AR-15 rifle wearing a suicide vest was on campus.
The call came in sometime around 6:30 p.m., police said. The caller did not specify where on campus the alleged bombs were placed.
As a result of the threat, police canvassed the school for at least two hours looking for any signs of danger. The department did not say if officers found any explosives.
No arrests have been made in connection with the call.
