Two Teens Arrested For Allegedly Making Threats Against Knox County School

KNOX COUNTY, Ind. – Two teenagers arrested in Knox County for making a threat against a school on social media.

The sheriff’s office says the threat was made on Instagram at around 8:15 Monday night.

They said the language used in the post on the app was “threatening in nature” towards South Knox Middle/High School and immediately began investigating.

About an hour and a half later the teenagers were arrested.

The sheriff’s office says there is no longer a credible threat toward the school, but additional deputies will be present on school grounds just in case.
