A middle school in Wichita was placed on lockdown Thursday morning after a possible threat was found on social media.
The threat was posted on Instagram that mentioned a school named Hadley, but it did not give any more specifics. The Wichita school district locked down Hadley Middle School at 1101 North Dougherty.
Wichita police officers were sent to the school as a precaution. In a press release, police said someone had posted a photo on Instagram that appeared to show someone holding a gun in a restroom. The Instagram account also had threats that led students to notify a teacher. An investigation found that the photo was not taken at Hadley Middle School, but police are continuing to gather more information on the Instagram posts.
