A 13-year-old faces a charge of making terroristic threats after posting a video online threatening to shoot a fellow student at Brewer Middle School in White Settlement, according to police.

In a tweet Wednesday morning, Police Chief Christopher Cook said the teen posted a video on social media with what turned out to be an airsoft gun.

“Fake threats will end in arrests for terroristic threat,” Cook said in the tweet.
