Police have located and arrested the juvenile involved in the threat against law enforcement and the juvenile’s family member. The juvenile was arrested specifically for a warrant unrelated to this event. Police and school staff do not feel that there is any further reason for concern.
No further updates will be released on this matter, and details are restricted due to the juvenile status of the arrestee.
I commend my officers and emergency staff for working hard to resolve this matter expeditiously.
