PORTALES — Portales police on Friday morning arrested a person threatening “an unknown school in Portales” the night before, according to a news release from Portales Municipal Schools Superintendent Johnnie Cain.
Police “determined the threat was not credible” but still had school staff on alert and “were closely monitoring the campus” on Friday.
Cain said the suspect was not armed “and presented no threat to the school,” but that “teachers and staff will remain alert as always.”
Police did not respond to questions about the incident.
