Conn. man given probation for placing fake bomb at school
A Connecticut man has been sentenced to three years of probation for placing a fake bomb outside a school in East Hampton. Sean Doran, 21, was also ordered to perform 150 hours of community service and pay a $1,500 fine, the US attorney’s office said. He was accused of leaving the device made from a box with duct tape with an egg timer on top outside the front doors of East Hampton Middle School on Jan. 12. He pleaded guilty in April to intentionally conveying false or misleading information and a hoax. School employees who discovered the device notified police, and a bomb squad determined it did not contain explosives.
