Deputies arrived and evacuated the building. No explosive devices were found in the search of the property, and work resumed just before 5 PM. The investigation led to a Clemson area restaurant, and detectives identified the suspect as 25 year old Carlos Lamont Willingham.
The Sheriff's Office says the suspect admitted to making the call but said it was meant to be a prank. Willingham was then taken into custody, he's charged with threatening to use an explosive device.
