The Dalles Police Department says a 9-1-1 call Monday morning claiming a fourth grader at Dry Hollow Elementary School had a gun was a hoax and the caller was a student at Chenoweth Elementary.  According to a joint statement by North Wasco County School District 21 and the police department, the initial call came at about 9:13 a.m.  Dry Hollow was placed in lockdown per protocol at that time, with 26 officers from The Dalles Police, Oregon State Police, and Wasco County Sheriff’s Office responding.  But 25 minutes later, based on multiple calls from the same caller to 9-1-1, it was discovered the calls were coming from the area of Chenoweth Elementary.  At about 9:50 law enforcement located and identified the caller, determined the calls were a hoax, and that there was no threat to any D-21 school.  Police did state misuse of 9-1-1 and initiating a false police report are crimes that they take seriously and are thoroughly investigated.
