P.M. Update: Suspect arrested in bomb threat

WAURIKA — With a Waurika High School student in custody of the Oklahoma Department of Juvenile Affairs, school authorities were praising the efficiency of the system in defusing a potentially dangerous situation.

On Thursday, a WHS female student informed Dale Spradlin, high school and middle school principal, that she had received a text message from a former boyfriend, who was threatening to bring guns and a pipe bomb to school. That report set in motion a chain of events that led to the male student being taken into custody, and left Waurika administrators talking about how well the system worked.

“I was so impressed that the system of handling something like this worked perfectly,” said Waurika Superintendent Roxie Terry. “The time between the threat being made and reported by the young lady until the individual was apprehended was just a few hours. There was no lag time and things were handled very well but all the agencies involved.”
