SHERBURNE - The Chenango County Sheriff’s Office has made an arrest in relation to a bomb scare that forced students, teachers and staff from the Sherburne-Earlville middle and high school building in September.

On Thursday, a 13-year-old male from the Town of Lebanon was arrested for allegedly making a bomb threat at the Sherburne-Earlville School District. Authorities believe the youth had written a threat that he would blow up the school. The incident was one of two bomb threats the school received during the first two weeks of the new school year.
