Back to Back Lockdowns at Dighton-Rehoboth High School

Police are investigating after two threats were reported at Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School in less than 24 hours. According to CBS 12 in Providence, the first threat was reported Tuesday, when police said that graffiti was discovered in a boys bathroom forcing the school to be placed into lock down. The school was placed into lockdown again yesterday morning after a student found two live bullets inside the same bathroom. Officers quickly responded to the high school and searched the entire building, though no suspicious items were found. Both incidents remain under investigation and it is unclear at this time whether they are connected. Superintendent Anthony Azar confirmed those responsible will be disciplined accordingly and that there will be a police presence at the high school for the remainder of the year.

 

Anyone who has any information about either incident is urged to contact the Dighton Police Department.
