JACKSON TWP., Darke County — A third bomb threat this school year at Mississinawa Valley High School has prompted a cash reward for information leading to the prosecution of those responsible.
Students and staff were evacuated about 1:40 p.m. on Wednesday, May 28, and did not return to class since the incident occurred just prior to normal dismissal, said Det. Sgt. Mark Whittaker of the Darke County sheriff's office.
