Waiting to go home: The students at Central Elementary School lined up to go home after their official dismissal at 3 p.m., but they had been forced from the building twice earlier in the day due to bomb threats. The Forrest City Police Department has made one arrest in the incidents, which disrupted classes at most area schools, including East Arkansas Community College and Crowley’s Ridge Vo-Tech.
