The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office (SRSO) was contacted yesterday in reference to a bomb threat at Pace High School, said Rich Aloy, public information officer for SRSO. Reports said deputies immediately partnered with School officials to begin an investigation.
Aloy said a note was discovered inside a text book at Pace High School and directed students to not attend school Thursday, December 4, 2014, due to a bomb. Aloy said after this note was discovered, the school was thoroughly searched with negative results. He said SRSO established a plan in coordination with school officials to continue searching the building as well as investigating the source of the note.
Aloy said SRSO will continue to maintain a proactive presence at our schools. We have allocated additional resources and will continue to do so until this investigation is completed. School will continue as normal. At this time, we have not found any indications this note is credible.
