On Tuesday morning a student at Coffee County High School found a threatening note and notified school administration. Dr. Ladonna McFall, Director of Coffee County Schools, said, "We had someone write on a wall 'threatening the building.'"

Manchester Police and the Coffee County Sheriff's Department searched the building as a precaution. Authorities gave the building the "all clear" around 12:30pm and students were allowed back in the building and returned to their classroom.

Shelbyville Central High School was the victim of a bomb threat Tuesday morning -- one of several apparent copy-cat incidents that have occurred at schools in Middle Tennessee over the past week.

Shelbyville school administrators say that a message was left on a girl's restroom wall that said a bomb was planted in a backpack in the building. No device was found at the Bedford County school.
