The unspecified number of threats were phoned in, they said.

"The investigation remains active and ongoing. More information will be released once it becomes available," the release says.

Anyone with information about the threats is asked to contact the prosecutor's tips line at 1-877-370-PCPO or tips@passaiccountynj.org or the Wanaque Police Department: (973) 835-5600. Callers can remain anonymous.
