HOLLISTON, MA – Confusion over a caller's words led to a reported bomb threat at Holliston High School, police said. Early Friday morning an anonymous caller told Holliston police a student had a "bomb" in a car. Police notified the school administration and the student parking lot was immediately cordoned off.

School and public safety officials identified the caller and the student who supposedly had the "bomb." When the caller was interviewed, the caller "immediately, emphatically and convincingly" said that the report was for a "bong," not a "bomb," police said.

The student whose vehicle had the item in it was removed from class, and the students were told to leave their belongings and moved to a separate room. Police interviewed the student and searched the student's backpack, locker and car.
