Owasso Police said they are investigating a threat made by an Owasso High School student Wednesday morning.
According to Deputy Chief Jason Woodruff, the department learned of a threatening statement posted on a social media site by a female student. Woodruff said the post insinuated that there might be a school shooting in Owasso.
Woodruff said it took only a few minutes for Owasso School Resource Officers to contact the student and confirm that she was not on school grounds.
As a precaution, he said, the department stationed additional officers at the schools until the legitimacy of the threat could be investigated and the student’s whereabouts could be confirmed.
She has since been interviewed and she is cooperating with officers, according to Woodruff.
Because the student is a juvenile the investigation is ongoing, Woodruff said the department won't make any more comments on the case.
