INTERNATIONAL FALLS — An International Falls Middle School student is in custody after he was accused of making a bomb threat.

The Koochiching County Attorney’s Office is reviewing the case and deciding whether to issue a juvenile delinquency petition against the 12-year-old. He could have a detention hearing Monday in juvenile court to determine whether he should continue to be held.

Authorities said the threat was made Nov. 18.
