A bomb threat called in to Herbert Hoover High School in Glendale Thursday morning was a hoax, police said. The school was on a “soft” lockdown for less than an hour as police searched the campus after a caller, around 11:20 a.m., said the school would blow up in five minutes, according to Glendale Police Sgt. During the “soft” lockdown, students could reportedly move throughout the campus but weren’t allowed to leave. School was back in session around noon, after authorities had cleared the campus. Anyone with information can call authorities at (818) 548-4911.
