FLORENCE COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) – Authorities have made a second arrest linked to a bomb threat toward a beauty school in Florence County.

The Florence County Sheriff’s Office said 25-year-old Rachael Levy was arrested Wednesday and charged with making a bomb threat. The count is related to an incident that happened on Monday, when deputies were called to 1428 Floyd Circle for a threat over the phone.

The address is listed as the location for Canvas Artistry, a beauty school that focuses on the nail industry. An investigation found no explosives and it was determined the call was a hoax.

Earlier this week, deputies also arrested 23-year-old Demarie Spontis in connection to the threat.
