The Clark County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a 16-year-old for posting a bomb threat to social media.
The juvenile posted on Snapchat on Tuesday (Oct. 15), claiming he was going to ‘blow up’ Heritage High School (7825 NE 130th Ave. Vancouver). Another student reported the post shortly after it was made.
Deputies immediately responded to the school and took the student into custody.
Authorities searched the teen’s locker and backpack and found no evidence of a bomb or bomb-making materials. At this time, investigators do not believe the threat to be credible.
