By The 1 min read

An 18-year-old female from Uniontown was arrested on felony charges for allegedly writing a bomb threat on a bathroom wall that led to the evacuation of Laurel Highlands High School on Sept. 12.

Celena R. Hale, 18, was charged with terroristic threats and threat to use weapons of mass destruction, state police said Monday night.

Hale allegedly confessed to writing the threat on a girls’ restroom wall, police said.

It was the second bomb threat and evacuation at the school since the school year began. A threat found on a girls’ restroom wall Aug. 31 also led to an evacuation.
