Officials on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota reacted quickly when a student threatened to shoot up the Little Wound School.

The student referred to the recent Red Lake Nation and Columbine shootings, said Ron Duke, the deputy chief of the Oglala Sioux Tribe's Department of Public Safety "He said that it was going to happen at Little Wound School," Duke told The Rapid City Journal.

Students were sent home on Monday after the student made the threat. A search was conducted at the school but no weapons were found.

Students returned to classes yesterday, and tribal law enforcement are planning to make regular patrols of schools on the reservation in response.
