Bethlehem Area School District and police and emergency personnel were on high alert following threats and Freedom, Liberty and Bethlehem Catholic high schools the afternoon of March 24.

The threats indicated bombs and shooters would activate at certain times, and the schools were evacuated and dismesses for the day.

Nothing suspicious was found at any of the locations and police investigators found an alleged perpetrator.

The 15-year-old, about whom no details were immediately forthcoming, was committed to Northampton County Juvenile Detention on charges of terroristic threats and threats to use a weapon of mass destruction. Both these charges are third degree felonies.
