A Gresham student accused of making false threats could face charges

GRESHAM, Ore. (KATU) — A Gresham High School student could face charges over social media posts threatening a school shooting.

Police say a community member alerted them to the 15-year-old’s posts showing multiple photos and videos of weapons.

The FBI and Gresham Police quickly determined the threat was a hoax and then notified parents and students.

KATU has previously reported concerns about the school’s handling of an incident in late September in which a student brought a gun to campus and subsequent unfounded threats.

The director submitted her resignation last week, citing the concerns.

Her last day is November 8.
