(Des Moines, IA) -- A student claimed to have a bomb, which led to the evacuation of Goodrell Middle School in Des Moines Monday.
That's according to Des Moines Police, who say school officials found what they thought was suspicious materials in the student's backpack.
Police say no illegal or explosive devices were found in the backpack or during a sweep of the school. Students were allowed back into the school after the search and were dismissed at the regular time.
An investigation continues.
