 "Utah elementary school evacuated; suspicious device found")
REUTERS - A suburban Utah elementary school was evacuated on Monday and a suspicious device found on the campus, the school said on its website.
Mountain View Elementary School in Layton, south of Ogden, said all students were safely evacuated but would not be returning on Monday. Parents were asked to pick up their children at a nearby Mormon church as soon as possible.
The school did not immediately release further details but the Salt Lake Tribune newspaper reported that police had detonated a suspected explosive device that had been found on the roof of the campus by a maintenance worker.
“The employee said it looked like a pipe bomb. He took it off the roof - not too sure why he did that - but police were then notified,” Davis School District spokesman Chris Williams told the Tribune.
The newspaper said a Davis County Sheriff’s Department bomb squad was on the scene in addition to police and firefighters.
