A former employee at Hearthside Solutions in McComb has admitted to making a bomb threat at the business. The Courier reports 37-year-old Leonard McIntosh of Toledo pleaded guilty to making a false alarm last month. He faces up to 17 months in prison. Judge Jonathan Starn will sentence McIntosh on June 8.

McIntosh called the threat into the business on May 6 of last year. The indictment says the threat caused an evacuation at the plant, which cost the company at least $150,000.

Authorities found no bomb in the facility.
