HOLLAND PATENT, N.Y. – The Oneida County Sheriff’s office says they have made an arrest following a threat made on social media against Holland Patent Middle School.
Authorities are not releasing the identity of the person arrested and are not saying whether the juvenile is a student at Holland Patent. The juvenile is charged with making a terroristic threat, a class D felony.
The sheriff’s department was called to the school at approximately 1:10 PM on Wednesday to respond a reported social media threat.

No students were in any danger and no students were hurt.
Officials say the investigation is ongoing.
