A 14-year-old boy was arrested for allegedly making threats of a shooting against an Irvine middle school, police said Wednesday.
The Irvine Police Department was alerted Tuesday to a series of social media posts allegedly threatening that a school shooting was going to occur at Orchard Hill School on Friday, according to a department statement.
The posts allegedly included a list of first names"that appeared to coincide with several students that attend Orchard Hills School," police said. IPD units investigated the posts and determined the author was the 14- year-old boy, who was a student at the middle school. He was arrested Tuesday, and police noted it did"not appear intended to carry out the threats nor does it appear he had access to a firearm."© 2022 CBS Broadcasting Inc.
