PRIEST RIVER, Idaho -

No threat was found after a North Idaho school was placed into lockdown Wednesday morning.

West Bonner County School District superintendent Ellen Perconti said that Idaho Hill Elementary School was placed into lockdown due to a "perceived threat towards a staff member at the school."

A subsequent investigation by the sheriff's office determined there was no threat to the school.
