GIRL ARRESTED FOR THREATS AT SCHOOL

Bakersfield police have arrested a 13-year-old girl on suspicion of writing a threat against her classmates on a bathroom wall at Ollivier Middle School. It was one of a series of threats that have plagued local schools in recent weeks, and in this case it caused a false emergency to take effect at the school. The girl is also being charged with vandalism, but investigators say there is no evidence she had the means to carry out the threat.
