Student Charged After Post With Threat to Mansfield Middle School

Connecticut State Police were at Mansfield Middle School Monday morning after officials learned of a threatening social media post and a student has been issued a summons for breach of peace, according to state police.

According to Mansfield Public Schools, officials learned Sunday of a message posted by a student that contained threatening language against the school.

State police responded to the school and determined that there were no safety concerns. The school opened as usual Monday morning, but with extra police as a precaution.

The student who made the post was issued a juvenile summons for breach of peace.

The communication from the school did not specify what the post said. School officials are encouraging parents to monitor social media use. 

The investigation is ongoing.
