The hoax that led to the evacuation of 1,800 Warren County High School students Wednesday continued sending shockwaves Thursday as two copycat bomb threats led to evacuations at Warren County High School and Warren County Middle School.“We don’t think they’re credible but we’re not taking chances,” said McMinnville Police Chief Bryan Denton, regarding both of the bomb threats.The copycat at WCHS came Thursday morning when a student found a bomb threat scrawled on a wall, much like the one the day before. “Unlike the one that was found Wednesday, this one looks new,” Denton said of the Thursday threat.The discovery led to an evacuation of the school. However, unlike Wednesday, students remained on campus, held at a distance from the buildings.
