Police have arrested a 15-year-old girl in California after she allegedly posted a threat on Snapchat saying she was going to commit a shooting at her high school on Thursday.

"The FBI did an incredible job of tracking this information down, did a great job of really doing the leg work in this investigation," Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said at a press conference Thursday. Using GPS, police were informed at about 6:30 a.m. that previous posts to that Snapchat account were made from a home in Fresno and officers were immediately dispatched. When they arrived at the home, the woman who spoke to police said she was aware of the post and was the teen girl's aunt, according to Dyer.

"She, when confronted about the post, admitted to the officers that she did in fact make this threatening post, but was not able to determine, or at least convince the officers, as to why that post was made," Dyer said.The unnamed minor has been charged with making a terror threat in juvenile court. She will be facing"a substantial amount of time in custody," Dyer said.
