A hoax phone call sent Moab schools into lockdown on Wednesday. It was one of over a dozen calls placed yesterday affecting communities across Utah. State and federal law enforcement are currently investigating the source of the calls. We also hear from a representative of Everytown For Gun Safety, who says there are long term impacts on students and their families living under the constant threat of gun violence. Plus, Arches National Park will use a timed-entry system again this tourist season to prevent overcrowding. And later, the EPA is studying better waste solutions in tourist towns.
