Springfield High School officials sent students home for the day in light of a bomb threat. Now Springfield Police say it was a hoax. And they weren't done yet, arresting a 12-year old for allegedly trying a similar stunt at Springhill Junior High School

(Springfield PD 3:39 p.m.) This afternoon officers responded to Springhill Jr. High after a student reportedly found a note that said "Springhill is next at 12:00 be warned now."  This was after the earlier bomb threat and evacuation at Springfield High School.  An investigation into the incident discovered that the student that turned in the note was in fact the person who wrote it.  The threat was a hoax and no children or staff were ever in any danger.  The 12 year old student was arrested and charged with inducing panic.  This arrest is not connected to the earlier threat at Springfield High School.

UPDATE 1:35 p.m.

(Springfield PD) As earlier reported, this morning the staff of the Springfield High School found a threatening message on the wall of a bathroom at the high school.

The message indicated that a bomb was set to detonate at noon. The building was evacuated as a precaution while police investigated. Due to the chilly temperatures, and the fact that the children may have to be outside for an extended period of time, the decision was made to send the students home for the day.

A search of the building reveled no explosive device.

Assistance in the search was given by the Summit County Sheriffs Departments bomb detection dog. At this point the threat is deemed to be a hoax and there is no reason to believe that the students or staff were ever in any danger. The threat is continuing to be investigated by the Springfield Twp. police.

Meanwhile, students were evacuated from the high school Friday morning. Springfield schoools superintendent Bill Stauffer tells AkronNewsNow the threat was discovered before 9:00 this morning. It was a crude drawing of a bomb left on a third-floor boy's restroom wall. He said police were called and didn't find anything, but as the search continued it was apparent the evacuation of students from the building would be longer than originally thought so the decision was made to send students home.

"We always take the kids safety first," Stauffer said. "I hated dismissing, and I hate closing school for that, but you just never know. I'd rather be safe than sorry."

Students that normally ride the bus were sent home on their bus route; most of the students with their own transportation already left. Those students missing bus transportation or being picked up by parents were taken to the Assembly of God Church at 1551 Canton Rd., across from Tri-County Plaza, for pickup.
