Broward Sheriff's Office deputies investigated bomb threats called in for two Lauderdale Lakes schools Tuesday morning.

BSO officials said a tip was called into the Crime Stoppers line just after 9:30 a.m. regarding the threats at Lauderdale Lakes Middle School and Boyd Anderson High School.

Deputies responded to both campuses and secured the area around them. Neither campus was evacuated.

BSO's Threat Assessment Unit was on each campus to help with the investigation. Shortly after 11:30 a.m., the all clear was given.

Officials have not released any details on their investigation.
