Louisville man suspected of calling threat to Lawrenceburg day-care center
The Anderson County Sheriff's Office is looking for a Louisville man who is suspected of calling a bomb threat to a Lawrenceburg day-care center Thursday.
Warrants have been issued for the arrest of Craig E. Nokes, according to the sheriff's office.
On Thursday morning, an anonymous person called WLEX-TV in Lexington and said that he had planted a bomb at the Anderson County Head Start Day Care.
The Lawrenceburg-Anderson County dispatch center received information identifying the suspect as the husband of an employee at the day-care center.
The day-care employee told dispatch that she had received a call from her husband saying he was going to blow up the day-care building.
The day-care center was evacuated and a Kentucky State Police bomb-sniffing dog searched the building but did not locate anything.
The day-care center will be closed Friday.
Anyone with information about the whereabouts of Nokes is asked to call the dispatch center at (502) 839-5125.
