Mich. student faces sentencing in bomb threat case

Posted: Updated:

MONROE, Mich. (AP) - A high school senior faces sentencing in connection with a bomb threat at his school in southeastern Michigan.

According to prosecutors, Milan High School senior Anthony Caputo made the threat on Facebook on Oct. 8. Police say they searched the school and found nothing.

Caputo pleaded guilty to a felony count of making a false report in exchange for prosecutors dropping a felony charge of using a computer to make a threat.

He's to be sentenced in Monroe County Circuit Court on Thursday.
