All suspects, minors, were arrested and are to be met by investigators. They may eventually face charges.
Chateaugui police explained that young people used the new online phenomenon “confession” to articulate their threats on Sunday evening.
“These are students who create profiles to encourage students in their own school to share messages anonymously. In the case of the Louis-Philippe-Pare school, some students chose to publish various threats to sow fear and confusion, ”explained Jenny Lavigne, a media relations officer with the Chateau City Police Department.
“Students who want to follow whatever action we believe to be an agnostic must remember. Any action is recognizable and recognizable, ”Agent Lavigne continued, recalling that the publication of threats could lead to indictments against their author.
Earlier on Monday, the Montreal Police Service announced the arrest of six teenagers in connection with threats targeting nine schools, again heading towards a social phenomenon called “confession”.
Authorities say the youths arrested in Montreal and Chategway are not identical.
