HARTFORD, Conn. — Students at Sport and Medical Science Academy in Hartford were temporarily out of class Friday morning after a "vague" bomb threat was reported.
Police said the threat came over the school's tip line around 6:30 a.m and was found to be "erroneous."
Students returned to class just after 9 a.m.
All bus pick-ups and drop-offs for the school were diverted to Richard J. Kinsella Magnet School of Performing Arts while police investigated, Hartford Public Schools said.
It's the second reported bomb threat at the school since December. On Dec. 2, 2022, school officials received a vague threat through their email around 6:30 a.m. as well, prompting a sweep of the building.
