BENTON, La. — An Airline High School student has been charged with terrorizing for allegedly making threats against another student in a group text.
The school was placed on restricted movement for a while to allow Bossier Parish sheriff’s deputies the chance to gather information and locate students.
Rumors about a weapon being on the campus circulated but were determined to be false, according to a joint statement from Sheriff Julian Whittington and schools Superintendent Jason Rowland.
Deputies and a K-9 conducted a sweep of the school as a precaution.
The 14-year-old who was arrested was booked into Ware Youth Center in Coushatta.
Whittington and Rowland said in the statement that threats against a school or student will be investigated thoroughly and any students who violate the law or school rules will face the consequences.
