A lockdown was also placed on nearby Tomball Junior High School, which wasn't being directly threatened but is in proximity of the high school campus.
Earlier, Tomball police told ABC13 that K9 units were inside the high school, checking bathrooms and the front parking lot due to the threat specifically mentioning those areas.
At some point during the investigation, Tomball Police Department had to address social media rumors, saying on its Facebook page that "a device has not been found."
