16 year old
arrested, arraigned for bomb threat at
North Andover High School
Freshman
Girl Confessed to writing threats on
bathroom wall
NORTH ANDOVER,
MA – March 3, 2008 –
North
Andover Police conducted an investigation
this weekend at North Andover High School
after administrators at school found a
bomb threat written on a bathroom wall on
Friday (February 29th).
Police were notified at 2pm Friday as the
principal sent out a warning to parents
that bomb threat had been made at the
school, prompting police to search the
school with “Julie”, the bomb
sniffing K9 officer.
According to North Andover Police
Lieutenant the message appeared to be
very serious in nature and was very clear
on where and wen the bombing was to take
place.
“We’re bomming (sic) North
Andover High! We’re killing everyone
3-20-08 be ready!” the threatening
message said.
On Monday March 3, 2008 police increased
their presence at the school, and
according to Gallagher, administrators at
the school conducted their own
investigation. “They interviewed a
number of students and were able to
determine who it was that wrote the
threat on the bathroom wall,”
Gallagher told the Valley Patriot in an
exclusive interview today.
“Obviously we cannot give any
details because the student is a minor
but I can say we made an arrest today and
the student was charged with disrupting a
school assembly and threats of an
explosive device which carries a 20 year
felony,” Gallagher said.
Sources at Lawrence Juvenile court told
the Valley Patriot this afternoon that
the student was a 16 year old freshman
girl at the high school and that she
confessed to writing the threats on the
bathroom wall, but did not know if the
student had been released to her parents
as of this afternoon.
