The student had been asked by another student to point out “five people you would kill,” Overland Park Chief of Police Frank Donchez told BuzzFeed News, and then indicated toward those students with a finger-gun gesture before pointing toward her own head. After receiving the reports, Westridge Middle School principal Jeremy McDonnell interviewed the 13-year-old student and those who witnessed the incident and then contacted the school resource officer.
“[The officer] then determined that several of the students are genuinely fearful of this girl, and combined with prior knowledge that he has, felt that an arrest was warranted,” Donchez said. The student is now facing a criminal threat charge and was taken to a juvenile detention center. According to the Kansas City Star, the girl is now living with her grandfather in California.
As you can see in the bottom video, another incident like this happened years ago when a student got "Suspended For Terroristic Threat".
