Arizona Teen Arrested for Snapchat School Shooting Threat

An Arizona high school student was arrested after posting a Snapchat image of a crowded school hallway with the message "planning the school shooting," police said.

The 16-year-old student, who was not identified by police because he is a minor, posted two photos to his Snapchat account of a crowded school hallway on Aug. 31, one with the text "Planning the school shooting" along with several smiley faces and another with the caption "In the office again," the Phoenix Police Department said in a statement.

Kaylee, a high school student in Colorado, saw the first message on the popular social media app, but said she did not know who the student was.
