Man makes bomb threat near Shearon Harris plant

NEW HILL, N.C. -- The all clear has been sounded at the Shearon Harris nuclear plant after a man claimed to have a bomb in his car Friday afternoon.

The plant went on lockdown and into a heightened state of security.

Two people were seen arguing in the car and, when security officers approached, the bomb threat was made.

Authorities believe it was a domestic incident not related to the plant. No explosives were found.

The car was on a public road near the plant's entrance.

Police said two people were detained, and Ryan Raymer was arrested on an outstanding warrant of communicating threats.

A plant spokesman said neither person was an employee of the plant.
