Elkhart County Administrator Tom Byers talks with other county employees outside the Elkhart County Administration Building at 117 N. Second St., Goshen, Thursday afternoon. “Fifteen years ago you would have wadded that up and thrown it in the waste basket,” Byers said about the emailed bomb threat. “Now you have to [take it seriously]." Byers said he did not see anything of importance in the recipients section of the email. It was handed to him by a staffer, sent in to the county commissioners office email. Byers called 911.
