AUBURNDALE, Wis (WSAU) The Wood County sheriffs department investigated a report that a student at Auburndale High School was planning to take a gun to school today. Sheriffs investigators say the report was unfounded.

The student who was the subject of the threat was interviewed. Investigators say the student didn't have access to a weapon, and they've determined the initial report was false.

Police will have an increased presence around the school as a precaution. There will be no checkpoints as students enter the building. The school district has also notified parents. Students who miss class today won't have the absence counted against them.
