A bomb threat was called into Roane County High School about 11 a.m.
Friday and the students were evacuated from the building. They were sent
to the Roane County Raiders football field and on buses parked near the
field.
Police, the Spencer-Roane Volunteer Fire Department and other emergency
personnel responded to the scene and commenced a sweep of the
building.
School administrator Steve Goffreda told WVRC's Toby Wagoner the
situation is under control and the students are not in harms way. He
complimented the students for their calm behavior during the
evacuation.
Goffreda said the students will be returned to the building after authorities
give clearance.
In recent years, students who have made bomb threats have frequently been
caught, although it is not known yet who made this call.
