Boulder City High School was on a soft lockdown for approximately 40 minutes today after it received a threat over the phone, according to the city’s Communications Manager Lisa LaPlante.
Two Boulder City Police officers responded to the school.
The lockdown was lifted around 1:35 p.m.
The caller’s phone number could not be traced, she said.
