A Brooklyn man is behind bars following a 10-week investigation into a bomb threat phoned into a local school.

On Tuesday, the Washingtonville Police Department, with the assistance of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, arrested Marcel Graham at his Brooklyn home.

The arrest was a result of an investigation into a bomb threat called into Washingtonville High School on January 17, police say.
