FORT SMITH, Ark. – A 13-year-old Arkansas boy faces a possible felony charge after allegedly threatening to "suicide-bomb" his junior high school, according to police.
After an online gaming platform alerted investigators, they were able to identify a student in connection to the threat by using the boy's screen name, a news release states.
Police found the boy with his grandfather at a Fort Smith home Sunday. The juvenile suspect had been suspended from school in the past for making similar threats, according to KFSM.
