Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Detectives arrested a juvenile for making a threat to a local high school.

This morning, just before 9:30 a.m., the Caddo 911 Center received a call through the Shreveport Police Dispatch from a falsely named student who said they were at Green Oaks High School with a gun and that they were going to shoot up the school.

The school was immediately placed on lock and searched by Caddo Sheriff’s deputies. Deputies cleared the school and found it to be safe.

Shreveport Police Dispatch immediately began their investigation and soon discovered that the call originated near the Grimmett Dr. Apartments and not the school. Detectives with the Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office Cyber Crime Unit continued the investigation and concluded that the falsely named student did not make the phone call, but it came from someone who lived in the Grimmett Dr. Apartments.

After following more leads, investigators were able to determine and locate the suspect who made the call. The juvenile suspect and a parent were contacted and transported to the Criminal Investigative Division Office for questioning. There the juvenile admitted to making the 911 call and making the threat.

The juvenile was arrested and charged with one count of Terrorizing and booked into the Caddo Parish Juvenile Detention Center.
