Hold and secure lifted for all schools in Kawartha Lakes and Haliburton

KAWARTHA LAKES - The Trillium Lakelands District School Board has lifted a hold and secure on all of its schools after a generalized threat was received Friday (Dec. 9) morning on Twitter.

Catherine Shedden, District Manager of Corporate Communications, Director’s Office, and Trustee Liaison, told MyKawartha.com that police and the Board are investigating the threat, which did not include any specific details, including which school was involved.

The incident is being investigated by OPP in Bracebridge. Later on Friday Bracebride OPP said they have arrested a 16 year-old Gravenhurst male after the investigation determined him to be allegedly responsible.

“At this point, we are working to track down a location to determine if there is anything, or nothing at all,” said Shedden, adding the hold and secure is a precautionary measure as safety is the Board’s first priority.  (more...)
