SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, Calif. - Two teens have been arrested for allegedly threatening to commit a mass shooting at Yucca Valley High School, according to the Morongo Basin Sheriff.
Officials said 18-year-old Brandon Robinson and a 17-year-old student were arrested for criminal threats.
According to an investigation, deputies had responded to the school "within minutes" after the department received information about two students making the threat via a Snapchat video.
SUGGESTED:
- San Dimas man shot dead outside house in suspected follow-home robbery
- Possible motive revealed in murder of California social justice advocate killed inside own home
- 2 arrested in string of armed robberies targeting victims wearing high-end jewelry in LA and Orange counties
Once that video was located and reviewed, authorities identified the two students and were able to detain and interview them.
No further information was immediately available.
