For the third time in as many weeks, a bomb threat was called in targeting the Montgomery Blair High School. 

On Monday morning, the Montgomery County Department of Police was called to the building, where there was a reported bomb threat that forced the school to shelter in place while officers investigated.

Following the initial call to investigate, students and staff evacuated the building until it was later determined around 1:30 p.m. on Monday that the threat was unfounded.

The latest threat comes on the heels of two other similar incidents at the same school, both of which forced an increased police presence in the area.
