MONROVIA, Ind. (WISH) - A threat called into the Morgan County Sheriff's Department Tuesday prompted the evacuation of Monrovia High School and Monrovia Middle School, school officials say.

The threat to the sheriff's department said there was a bomb at a Morgan County high school, but didn't specific which. Monroe-Gregg school officials had all students moved to the elementary school as a result.

After the sheriff's department did a sweep of the schools, students returned. Monroe-Gregg school officials said the schools would remain "on alert" all day.
