Bed bugs discovered at Cleveland elementary school

CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) -

Bed bugs discovered at a Cleveland public elementary school.

School officials tell 19 Action News a teacher at Wade Park Elementary on the city's east side found two bed bugs on Monday afternoon.

She killed one and took the other to the principal.

An exterminator confirmed the insect was a bed bug, and then treated the teacher's classroom and the entire building.

On Tuesday, just as a precaution, the students put their bags and coats in plastic bags.

No bugs have been seen since.

School remains in session.
