Suspect Arrested, Charged Over Bomb Threat at Army Recruiting Office

Police said he threatened to blow up the buildings.

Police in Lubbock, Texas, have arrested a 16-year-old after he allegedly called in two separate bomb threats just before 5 p.m. Wednesday — one to an Army recruiting center and another to an Army Reserve facility.

Police evacuated both facilities, but officers didn't find anything suspicious at either location, KCBD-TV reported.

Law enforcement said the caller claimed he was going to blow up both of the buildings, according to Lubbock Online.

Police arrested the suspect. He was charged with making a terroristic threat.
