Nelson County Sheriff Brooks confirms to NCL this morning that Nelson County High School is being evacuated. “It’s a matter of routine safety anytime we received a bomb threat. Though we have never had a real threat in the past, we have to take the student’s safety into consideration,” Sheriff Brooks said Monday morning.
Officers from his department as well as area fire and rescue units were staged at the school while routine searches are ongoing.
A K-9 sniffing dog has been requested to aid in the search.
More when we know.
