Bracebridge OPP are investigating a threat made near the Gravenhurst High School that took place on Tuesday afternoon.
Police say several young people reportedly got into a conflict with students near the school and made threats mentioning a weapon. While no weapon was seen, police responded quickly, putting both the high school and a nearby elementary school into a "hold and secure" for safety.
Officers later identified and located the individuals involved, confirming they were not carrying weapons.
The hold and secure was lifted just before the school day ended.
The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is urged to contact OPP or Crime Stoppers.
