GREAT FALLS, Mont. (AP) - Police in Great Falls have released a photo of a person of interest in a bomb threat that led to the closure of all the public schools in Great Falls on Monday. Some Christian schools and the University of Providence also closed as a precaution.

Surveillance cameras in the area of Whittier School captured the image of a person who police believe frequents the downtown area, officers said Tuesday.

The suspect is described as as a light-skinned male about 5 feet, 8 inches (1.72 meters) tall with a thin to medium build, dark eyebrows and sparse facial hair. Officers did not release a name, but said he smokes cigarettes.



No explosive devices were found at any of the schools and classes resumed Tuesday.
