IONIA COUNTY, Mich. — Ionia Public Schools announced Saturday that the district's school dance would be canceled following threats.
The district's Daddy Daughter Dance, originally slated to be held at Ionia Middle School on Saturday, was canceled by school officials and law enforcement.
This announcement comes after the Ionia Middle School Dance was also canceled Friday due to "specific threats."
Posts on the district's Facebook page say that the district is working with law enforcement to investigate these threats.
On Sunday, the Ionia Department of Public Safety said the threats were made on Snapchat beginning Friday into Saturday. A person of interest was found, and police have determined that they are out-of-state.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is now assisting with the investigation.
Ionia police say there are no credible threats against the school.
The district says the dances are expected to be rescheduled at a later date.
