Deputies with the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office said they responded to a reported bomb threat at Westwood Christian School in southwest Miami-Dade on Friday afternoon.
Authorities said MDSO deputies were called to the area of Southwest 58th Street and Southwest 120th Avenue in the Kendale Lakes neighborhood.
The pre-kindergarten–12 school is located near the intersection.
Sky 10 flew over the school at 2:53 p.m., where deputies and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue crews were at the scene.
Authorities said deputies conducted a comprehensive security sweep of the campus while following established safety protocols.
First responders later concluded the sweep and determined the call was a swatting incident. Students and staff have since returned to the school.
No other details were immediately released.
