No Threat Found After Lockdown at PJP

The lockdown was a precaution taken by school officials.

The Limerick Post reports that school officials locked down Pope John Paul II High School on Wednesday morning after a situation was "perceived as a threat."

In such a situation, the school's procedure is to secure the school and contact Upper Providence police. 

Students and teachers are confined to the building and people are prevented from entering the building from the outside during a lockdown.
