Nassau and Suffolk police say there have been at least 60 threats to Long Island schools since the new school year began.

A series of online threats have been circulating across Long Island and the nation through social media.

The latest threat happened at South Ocean Middle School in Patchogue, where police say a bomb threat was emailed. The threat was determined to be a hoax.
