County authorities say a juvenile was arrested after a bomb threat caused the evacuation of a school and hospital in Onaga.

Sheriff Greg Riat says a boy under the age of 14 was arrested then released to his parents after being booked.

Riat says someone called the sheriff’s office Tuesday morning and made a bomb threat against the Onaga Elementary School and Onaga Community Hospital.

Onaga Police Chief Dan Costlow says students at the school were sent home for the day.

Patients and staff were evacuated until the hospital was searched and no bomb was found.
