Merchantville School in Camden County will be closed Thursday so police can investigate an "unspecified threat" found in the boys' bathroom, said Edward Bohn, president of the school board.
Bohn said he could not elaborate on the threat or say whether police have swept the school property for explosives or weapons. "An active investigation has been started, and police are asking that all parents speak to their kids about this incident," Bohn said. "Anyone with any information can call the police department and all conversations will be confidential."
