BUCKEYE, Ariz. — A 12-year-old Arizona girl has been arrested and charged with allegedly threatening a school in Wisconsin, according to the Buckeye Police Department.
BPD said that they were contacted by the Milwaukee Police Department early Sunday morning as an investigation about a threat made to a school in that city was made from an IP address in Buckeye.
Buckeye police officers then went to the home associated with the IP address and interviewed a 12-year-old girl about the threat and "recovered evidence."
Officers arrested the 12-year-old girl. She has been charged with felonies, which include making a terroristic threat.
"No threats were made against Buckeye schools, and the community is not in danger," Buckeye police said in a post on Facebook.
No other details about the case have been released.
This is a developing story and more details will be added as they are made available.
