(Bob Hague, Wisconsin Radio Network) A single student is believed to be responsible for a series of threats made to western Wisconsin Schools.
Staff from Chippewa Falls school district and the Wisconsin Department of Justice say a series of threats made last week through the official online reporting app Speak Up Speak Out came from one student.
Those threats forced the closure of schools in Altoona, Augusta, Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls and Elk Mound. The unidentified student will be facing legal and school-related consequences, though it is unclear if they have been arrested.
