Students are back in class this afternoon at Chestnut Log Middle School after a bomb threat caused them to evacuate the school while deputies from the Douglas County Sheriff's Department and bomb-sniffing dogs searched the building, according to Karen Stroud, the County's school system communications director.
"Nothing was found," Stroud said. "Students were orderly, calm and mannerly."
The threat was emailed to the school's main office at between 10 and 10:30 a.m. Kids were evacuated and parents were immediately notified via their emergency contact method, either emailing or calling. Information was also put out on the school's Facebook page.
Two bomb-sniffing dogs searched the school and the school grounds and students were back in class by about 11:30 a.m., Stroud said.
The source of the email is under police investigation.

Should be no problem finding the jerk.
All emails can be traced back to the source.
Hope you post when you have them in custody.
Wish we could lead them through the town and stone them like the old days.
