A high school in Colorado was evacuated after authorities learned of a bomb threat through a school safety app
After the Columbine shooting in 1999, Colorado worked to develop the Safe2Tell Colorado tip line, where anyone can report threats against schools.

"It's been a successful program in reducing violence... and threats towards the school," Pacheco said.
