(KMZA)--A person of interest is being interviewed in connection with a late morning bomb threat in Onaga.
Police Chief Dan Costlow says the written threat was found at the Onaga Grade School, and reported to authorities around 10:40 Tuesday morning. “It listed several locations in town”, Costlow tells MSC News. “Two of those locations would be the hospital and the Elementary and High School/Middle School. It's all one building here. Both those chose, for safety reasons, to evacuate.”
A search was launched, but no explosives were found, and the schools and hospital were allowed to resume normal duties.
No details are yet made public regarding the person of interest as the investigation continues.
