Near North District School Board

Police say they've investigated the allegation and assure the public there's no concern for the safety of any students attending school.

The Near North Board confirms two separate incidents at Northern Secondary in recent days resulted in emergency measures being put in place.

They say after it was lifted at the direction of police, a further safety concern resulted in a lockdown being implemented.
