PATERSON, N.J. (AP) - Two teenagers are accused of phoning in a false bomb threat leading to the evacuation of two schools in New Jersey.

The threat led the Passaic County sheriff’s bomb squad to search Manchester Regional High School in Haledon and Prospect Park School #1 in Prospect Park on Tuesday.

The 14- and 15-year-old are charged as juveniles with false public alarm.
