school bomb threats

Making phony bomb threats across Texas is no laughing matter, and soon making them on college campuses could result in felony charges.

It was a tense afternoon on the UTEP campus after students and faculty had to be evacuated in the wake of a bomb threat Tuesday afternoon.  Classes will resume their normal schedule today.
