HOUSTON — Houston Community College said its Central Campus will be closed through Tuesday due to a safety threat.
The campus was closed Monday, and HCC officials said Monday evening it will remain closed Tuesday.
The campus, located in the 1300 block of Holman Street, will be closed because of a shooting threat made on Facebook this weekend. HCC will also continue to provide additional security at its other campuses.
With a few exceptions, final exams scheduled for Tuesday will be moved to Thursday. This is in addition to an earlier postponement of Monday's final exams to Friday.
Authorities held a press conference Tuesday afternoon but released few details as the investigation is ongoing.
They did mention the school's commencement ceremony will go on as planned on Saturday.
The HCC police chief said no arrests have been made yet.
HCC says its police department is actively working with other law enforcement agencies to identify the source of the threat in an effort to eliminate the risk of harm.
