Police say a caller on Friday morning told them a business in the city's downtown would be "bombed out" on the weekend.
They say he then hung up.
Police say they were able to track down a suspect based on descriptions from witnesses who said they saw a man using the phone.
Michael Randolph Parks, 64, was detained by police.
Businesses were told about the threat, but no suspicious packages were found.
