PROSPECT PARK, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- A Delaware County high school football game was canceled Friday night due to a possible threat.

The game between Interboro High School and Chichester High School was to take place at Interboro's field in Prospect Park.

However, Interboro district officials sent out a text saying the district received a threat from a non-Interboro student about bringing a weapon on the game.

"The athletic directors from both schools are working to reschedule the game," a message from Chichester School District Superintendent Dr. Gregory Puckett said on the Chichester School District's Facebook page.

Police are investigating the incident.
