Parents of Fontana Middle School students reacted Tuesday to news that three students are now under arrest after making threats on the Internet.
Fontana Unified School District officials say they found out about the threat on Friday. A list was posted online threatening nearly 24 students and a few teachers at Fontana Middle School, and at a school in Etiwanda.
"He didn't make a specific threat to any one individual, but he certainly shared enough information for us to want to look into this matter a further and dig deeper and find out exactly what we're dealing with," said Fontana Unified School District Chief of Staff Olivier Wong Ah Sun. "And he is currently talking to Fontana Unified School District police, and it is an ongoing investigation."
School police say no weapons were found at the student's house. They arrested two other students who they're calling accomplices.
"It is taken very, very seriously," said Olivier Wong Ah Sun. "There are too too many bad examples of what can occur in this situation, and so we cannot let any situation like this go un-investigated."
The district said everyone named on the list has been notified and notices have gone home with all students.
The students arrested will be out of school indefinitely.
