That child has been charged with four counts of terroristic threatening.
Covington police said the child was taken into custody in Michigan on Sept. 22 for an unrelated matter.
The bridge closed a total of five times for possible threats; Four of those threats were allegedly made by the 14-year-old, while one was tied to a suspicious bag spotted on the bridge that turned out to be harmless.
Investigators first responded to the bridge on the morning of September 13 after receiving a 911 call from a person threatening to shoot police and put pipe bombs on the bridge. That threat was deemed not credible.
