No devices or suspicious items were found during a search that began shortly before 1:30 p.m. on Monday, March 28, following the unspecified phone message to city police headquarters, Capt. Michael Antista said.
The Bergen County Sheriff's Bomb Squad and K-9 Unit investigated and found nothing out of the ordinary, and city police gave the OK to resume the regular day a short time later, he said.
They took a different approach following what turned out to be a "swatting" call three weeks ago. Area streets were closed and students and staff were moved to safe locations in that incident.
