I work on Route 28 just a few miles from the school. No idea what's going on besides the statement that it's a bomb scare. There have been a TON of cop cars going down toward the school all day today. Mostly Ulster County Sheriff but a few NYC DEP police as well (we're a stone's throw from the Ashokan Reservoir so I don't doubt they're providing support). A bunch of ambulances too.
Really random...just a few minutes ago two ambulances escorted by cop cars were hauling ass down the road (coming from the direction of the school) stopped in the parking lot next door to my office, sat for a minute (probably less), then the broke apart and one went in the direction of Kingston and the other went back toward the school. Lights flashing, horns blowing and everything. Really random and none of us understood what is going on there. For what it's worth another ambulance just came by from the direction of the school but with no lights and driving the speed limit.
One of my coworkers has kids in the district. The school has said that a bomb threat was made and they evacuated the kids out of the buildings and they're all on the athletic fields. No one apparently is in danger/injured.
Another one of my coworkers said that he heard there is another incident happening nearby. What the incident is and if it is related or not is unclear. If I find out more I'll try to fill you all in.

Just got an update (note this is second hand and unconfirmed) but the "other incident" that was referred to was a diver got lost in the Ashokan Reservoir. I'm assuming it's a contractor working for NYC as diving is not allowed as an activity on the reservoir.

Hmmm...really wonder what they were doing. That water is rough cause its always windy up there. This is my 17 yr old a few weekends ago taking a picture of his truck over there. He always flies a 6ft American flag. That flag was straight out just from the wind blowing
