The caller made several false reports of shots fired, profanity and hang-ups to police against Collins Middle School on the morning of June 10, police said on Facebook. The caller also said he was going to stage a shooting at the school, according to police. 

The department later determined the threats as not credible but have increased their presence at the school out of precaution. The investigation is ongoing.
