An elementary school in Parker, Colorado was evacuated as a precautionary measure after receiving an automated bomb threat. Local media reported that schools in Colorado Springs and Pueblo were also evacuated after receiving the so-called 'robocalls'. The threats extended to some schools in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Wisconsin and California, and similar threats were reported in the U.K. In late April, an anonymous video posted on social media threatened "American students" with death and prompted multiple Ohio schools to close. Authorities later said the threats were not credible. Local police are working with federal agencies to investigate the these latest computer-generated bomb threats.
