Police: Student Arrested for Posting Online School Threat

A student in Warren, Massachusetts is facing charges in connection with an online threat.

Warren police said they were made aware of a threatening online video Wednesday after several parents contacted the police department with concerns.

Following a joint investigation with the Quaboag Regional School District, West Brookfield and Chicopee police departments, the student was arrested and charged.

Neither the name of the student nor the exact charges the student is facing have been released.

Police said there will be a police presence at the student's school as a measure of precaution. Authorities have not disclosed the name of the school.

"We have no reason to believe that it will be anything but business as usual tomorrow at the school," police said in a statement.
