Provo Police say that Franklin Elementary and Dixon Middle School were placed on lockdown Wednesday morning.

Provo Police Sgt. Mathew Siufanua said earlier that a phone call was received making threats to a student at Dixon Elementary and as a precaution both schools were placed on lockdown while they searched for the caller.

The schools have since been taken off lockdown and law enforcement will speak later about the incident.

FOX 13 and fox13now.com will have more details when they become available.
