Florida police have arrested a high school student after video emerged of a potential gunman threatening to open fire at a school. The Sanford Police Department said it received an anonymous tip on Saturday “regarding a video of an unknown male threatening to shoot up Seminole High School.” “The video pictured the subject with multiple guns, vests, and other items of concern,” police said in a statement Sunday. Sanford police and other law enforcement worked to identify the person featured in the video. Their investigations led them to arrest a 17-year-old a day later. Police said the 17-year-old is enrolled at Elevation High School, which is also in the city of Sanford. He was taken into custody at his home without incident. He is charged with Intimidation Written/Electronic Threat of Mass Shooting/Terrorism Act.
