School Officials Found Two Nooses on a Tree,
One in the Bus Parking Lot
and One on the Flagpole
A day after civil rights figures led a massive protest in Jena, La., where racial tensions flared after nooses were hung from a tree outside Jena High School, more nooses were found on a tree outside another southeastern high school.
A total of four nooses were found Friday around the campus of Andrews High School in High Point, N.C., police said.
Two nooses were hung on a tree in front of the school, one was in a bus loop near the upperclassmen's parking lot, and one red noose was tied to the top of the school flagpole, High Point Police Capt. Margaret Erga said, citing a police report.
Erga said school administrators discovered the nooses around 8:30 a.m. and immediately notified authorities, who officially filed the report at 10:41 Friday morning.
Extra police officers were brought to the campus and security was in force at Andrews High School for the remainder of the day....
