Hays High School was locked down briefly Friday afternoon after a report of a suspicious backpack in a classroom, according to a message sent to parents.

The district said law enforcement investigated and found no threat or danger to the school. Officials believe this to be an incident of swatting.

Classes will dismiss at normal times.
