Arrest made in Paris bomb threats

By Scott Harvey

Paris – Authorities in Paris have arrested the man they believe made bomb threats to three city and county offices Tuesday.

A sweep of potential bombs at both the Lamar County Courthouse and Paris Municipal buildings Tuesday found nothing suspicious.

A vehicle was identified from security tapes at a convenience store. The driver, Clinton Stewart Dart was taken into custody and reportedly confessed to his role in the incident.

Dart has been charged with three counts of making a terroristic threat and impairing public services, both third degree felonies.
