LOGAN, Utah, Nov. 9, 2021 (Gephardt Daily) — Regular classes at Logan High School have been delayed until 10 a.m. Tuesday due to a bomb threat posted on Instagram, according to Logan City Police.

The LCPD statement is as follows:

Late last evening, Logan City Police officers were made aware of an Instagram post that included a bomb threat directed at Logan High School.
