Deputies: Arrest made after bomb threat at Flagler Hospital

Someone in Tennessee is expected to face charges after a bomb threat at Flagler Hospital in St. Johns County.

Deputies began investigating the threat after it was called into the hospital Tuesday afternoon.

A hospital spokesperson said patients were still being admitted to the emergency room as deputies did a full sweep of the building.

St. Johns County Sheriff's Office said someone was arrested in Tennessee in a separate case but will also face charges in connection with the bomb threat.
