— Police in Ewing Township, New Jersey say the decision to close the school district on Tuesday came after the man who shot eight people at Michigan State University, killing three, was found with a note threatening Ewing schools.
Out of an abundance of caution, Ewing Public Schools announced all its schools would be closed on Tuesday, Feb. 14.
Police say the gunman who killed himself hours after fatally shooting three students at Michigan State University was 43-year-old Anthony McRae.
Ewing Township police said McRae had ties to the Ewing area.
They were notified by police in Michigan that McRae was found with a note in his pocket that indicated a threat to two Ewing schools.
