A juvenile was arrested after a threat was made against Windham Middle School on Friday.
Willimantic Police said the threat appears to be a hoax and is not as viable as it was originally considered.
"Most of these reports came from the Middle School students themselves and that is commendable," Detective Lieutenant Doug Glode said in a statement.
The threat prompted an investigation by the Willimantic Patrol Division, Detective Division and the School Resource Officer.
Officers were contacted around 10 p.m. on Friday about an Instagram post that was threatening and targeted the school, police said.
