ATHENS–The Henderson County Commissioners’ Court meeting was cut short after a bomb threat forced several evacuations June 7. The threat stopped the meeting during a presentation by UT Health Regional CEO Donald Baker.
“I hate to cut this short but we have a little incident that is taking place,” Henderson County Judge Wade McKinney told those present. “Major, if you would,” McKinney continued, as a Henderson County deputy sheriff said,” We need everyone to leave the building.” 
As of press time,the K-9 dogs had just arrived to inspect the grounds, courthouse, Judicial Complex and Annex Building.
