all free download

An eleven year old has been connected to a bomb threat at the Easton Middle School.

The Talbot County Sheriff’s Office says that the incident occurred on October 25th.

They said students found a note that said a bomb would explode during lunch hour.

WBOC reports the students gave it to their teacher who notified the principal.

The television station reports that the authorities say the child admitted to writing the note and was charged with a false statement about a destructive device and disturbing school activities.

His name has not been released because of his age.

The child was then given to the Department of Juvenile Services.
