Lakeland, Florida - A Polk State College student has been arrested after telling deputies she took part in making a false bomb threat in July so she could study for a test. Alexxis C. Anthony, 19, from Lakeland, told deputies she and a friend, Theron K. Brown Jr., were involved in a bomb threat to the college because she wanted her class to be canceled. Anthony, a student at the Lakeland campus, told deputies she was pressured to keep her grades up because of a college scholarship. The Lakeland campus was evacuated and closed until law enforcement confirmed that there were no explosive devices. More
