KID, 11, CALLS IN SCHOOL BOMB THREAT AS A "JOKE"

WELL that's one way to get out of school - but definitely not the smartest, that's for sure.
An 11-year-old called in a bomb threat to his school, threatening to blow up students and shoot teachers because he was "bored."
The fifth-grader's message to Indiana's Yorktown Community Schools voicemail system sent the district into lockdown, as officers and sniffer dogs scrambled to search for the explosives.
Marshal Todd St. John tells The Star Press that the boy told officers he called in the threat because he was bored and meant it as a joke.
