A Texas high school teacher who triggered a campus lockdown with a reported stabbing by a student was arrested after investigators determined the entire incident was a hoax, authorities said.
More than 100 officers rushed to Splendora High School on Thursday after a teacher reported an emergency around 8:45 a.m., the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said.
Authorities locked down the campus as school resource officers moved to secure students and staff, the sheriff’s office said.
Investigators, however, said authorities quickly determined there was no such assault.

“During the course of the investigation, it was determined that no assault on a teacher had been committed by a student,” the sheriff’s office said. “Detectives discovered that the injury sustained by the teacher was self-inflicted and the evidence supports that the entire incident was a hoax.”
The school had told parents that police were investigating a report of a “physical altercation” between a student and a staff member, FOX26 Houston reported.
