UPDATE: The Woodlands High School Lockdown, Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office units on scene

The Woodlands High School went into lockdown around 12:15 p.m. on Nov. 4 after an internet phone threat claimed a person with pipe bombs was in the parking lot intending to attack the school. Conroe ISD police, sheriff's deputies, and local, state, and federal responders secured the campus; the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office confirmed there was no active shooter, no shots fired, and no injuries, and students were bused to a designated parent pickup location. Officials said a doctored social-media post and an erroneous daycare message falsely reported a confirmed shooter during the response, and that anyone who made or spread the threat will be investigated and prosecuted.
