COLUMBIA -- A Columbia teen arrested Friday for calling in a bomb threat at Columbia's Hickman High School now says he was just joking.

The teen is still behind bars Monday at the Boone County Jail. His bail is set at forty-five hundred dollars.

He's held on charges of making a terrorist threat.

Three-hundred students had to be evacuated friday from Hickman High School while police searched for a bomb. No explosives were ever found.
