Central Davidson High School dismissed early after bomb threat, officials say

Deputies are sweeping the school on Thursday. Students have gone home for the day.

LEXINGTON, N.C. — Central Davidson High School students were sent home early Thursday due to a bomb threat investigation, Davidson County Schools confirmed with WFMY News 2. Deputies said it turned out to be an unvalidated threat and nothing was found inside the school. 

Davidson County Sheriff's Office said deputies were dispatched to the report of a bomb threat at CDHS right before school started, but students were already at the school. 

Not long after, the school sent students home for the day. 

Captain Cory Mann said deputies did a sweep of the school and did not find anything. 

The sheriff's office was unable to comment on if the threat came in as a call, email, or otherwise.
