Lockdown lifted at Thompson Elementary School after suspicious package found

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The lockdown at Thompson Elementary School has been lifted after the Harris County Sherrif's Office found a suspicious package near the campus.

Deputies responded to a suspicious package call near the Spring ISD campus around 2 p.m.

The package was found near the 1200 block of Walters. Spring ISD says the lockdown was a precaution.

The district said it did not receive any specific threat, but students and parents are still on edge after a rash of explosions in Texas in the last two weeks.
