Friday night’s football game between Thornton Fractional North and Thornton Fractional South high schools in Lansing was called off at halftime due to a reported threat of violence.

Friday night’s football game between Thornton Fractional North and Thornton Fractional South high schools in Lansing was called off at halftime due to a reported threat of violence received by Lansing police, according to a social media post from High School District 215. The remainder of the game was postponed to Saturday afternoon.

Richardson said his team was in the far end zone when an athletic director told him to get all players off the field.“He didn’t say what kind of threat,” Richardson said Saturday. “The stadium was evacuated and only parents are allowed at the game today.”Jennifer Arnold, who graduated from TF South with her husband 27 years ago, said her daughter, now a freshman there, wanted to attend her first high school football game, so they went along with her Friday.

“It was more confusing than anything,” Arnold said. “The school and police handled it amazingly well.”
