Kansas City Juvenile Makes MySpace Threat

Police today say a juvenile in Kansas City is responsible for a school threat posted on MySpace.com.

Police say the threat is not specific -- only that there would be a school shooting incident in Kansas. They say the whole thing started when the young man in Kansas City, Kansas sent a text message to a girl in Kansas City.

Police say she posted it to her MySpace page, and the incident just continued to snowball. Authorities have questioned the young man who made the threat, but have not released his name.

The KBI, FBI Cyber Task Force, and now KCK police are involved in the investigation.
